According to the World Health Organization, a mere 0.01 percent of individuals in India contribute their organs posthumously. In this podcast, we're joined by Shivam Nagpal, whose NGO 'Organ For Life' strives to propagate awareness in India and beyond. Featured in esteemed publications such as The Guardian, Vice, Times of India, and NDTV, Shivam is dedicated to creating a global impact, fostering a better society for organ patients in the South-Asian region. An aspiring lawyer, he has passionately championed organ and blood donation for the past 2.5 years. Inspired by the United Kingdom's opt-out system, Shivam envisions a world where individuals are presumed organ donors unless they explicitly state otherwise. His profound motivation stems from the noble goal of saving lives.

Remember, if you haven't recorded an organ donation decision and fall outside excluded groups, it will be assumed that you consent to donating your organs upon passing.
