Global Community Perspectives

We just finished a global support group (If you haven't joined a call yet with @DannyH you're missing out) and the connection in the zoom room was so powerful. We chatted about how incredible it is to be able to be in a room full of strangers who live on the other side of the world and be able to feel seen and heard. Even in all of our differences, there's still so much common ground.

One thing we were chatting about that I'd love to bring to our broader community is our cultural/country's attitude towards transplant care and how the broader public views organ donation. Even in countries that seem to have a really positive relationship to transplantation, we've found there can still be so much stigma around what it means to be a transplant recipient and the lifelong effects.

I'm curious how where you live has shaped your view of transplant.
