About

Organ transplantation is vital in medical science, yet it faces challenges like donor shortages and cultural barriers. Studies show public misconceptions, religious beliefs, and psychological concerns impact donor willingness, alongside logistical issues. Efforts like public education and improved matching systems exist, but gaps remain. An integrated approach with ethical standards, psychological support, and advanced logistics is needed. Volunteer organizations and community participation are crucial, with Sri Lanka's success as a model. This research topic explores these challenges to develop strategies for enhancing donor recruitment, optimizing allocation, and increasing organ availability.
