NMC Healthcare hosts 3-day series supporting MOHAP’s Hayat initiative for World Organ Donation Day
NMC Healthcare (‘NMC’) is proud to host three days of educational sessions on organ donation, starting today, 13 August 2025, in observance of World Organ Donation Day. This initiative aims to raise public awareness about the critical importance of organ donation and encourage organ donor registrations in the UAE. The educational sessions are open to the public and will take place at five of NMC Healthcare’s major hospitals in Sharjah, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi.
The campaign is organised in collaboration with Hayat - the UAE’s National Program for Donation and Transplantation of Human Organs and Tissues, led by the UAE’s Ministry of Health & Prevention (‘MOHAP’), which encourages UAE residents over the age of 18 to register as organ donors. Hayat follows international standards and best practices to promote safe and effective organ donation.
Dr. Zaka ullah Khan, chief clinical officer at NMC Healthcare said: “We are honoured to join forces with Hayat to bring attention to organ donation and share information about how organ donation transforms lives – from patients with chronic kidney failure, to those awaiting liver, heart, or lung transplants. We hope to help inspire more people to contribute to this life-saving cause.”
NMC hospitals across the country will host a series of educational sessions which explain:
- How the UAE’s organ donor registry works
- The process of organ donation and transplantation
- Opportunities for eligible adults to register as organ donors onsite
NMC Healthcare encourages eligible individuals to learn more about organ donation and consider registering as donors through this life-saving campaign.
