Toward Equity in Living Donation – Question & Answer Session

In this Question & Answer session, Mr Frank Dor along with Dr Dela Idowu and Gillian King from the community organisation GOLD (Gift of Living Donation) emphasise the importance of clinicians in being able to recognise the cultural and social nuances which can impact the behaviours of individuals within the Black community with regards to healthcare.  

The three also discuss from their own experiences, how organisations like GOLD can help bridge the gap in the relationship of clinicians and individuals from the Black community in being able to have discussions about Transplantation and Organ donation.

The video touches upon a GOLD Pilot Project which ran from February 2023 – February 2024 across London. For more information about this pilot, please see the Gift of Living Donation website: https://www.giftoflivingdonation.co.uk/book/pilot-project-report-2024/ Please consider watching the on-demand video of the initial webinar “Toward Equity in Living Donation: Empowering Teams for Change”.
