China’s top human organ donation watchdog has again been campaigning to have Chinese nationals register in its “voluntary human organ donation” database since July this year.

China Organ Donation Administrative Center (CODAC) issued a notice on its website on July 24, launching a series of “nationwide propaganda season” activities to promote organ donation among Chinese people.

The CODAC’s notice, titled “Notice on Launching the 2023 National Voluntary Human Organ Donation Registration and Promotion Season Activity,” is unavailable on its website. However, it lists the promotion as a “major event” in July on its website, with the event themed “commitment of life, spreading of great love,” together with a three-month-long “organ donation life relay” event conducted nationwide simultaneously.
