It's what's inside that counts.
Since January 2021, more than 11,000 pupils and 800 teachers have participated in the Orgamites educational program.
This educational program, which started from England and was adopted by Scotland and Canada, continues its journey for the third consecutive year, in order to share with us tips that will help us look after our health and teach us all about organ donation. It is included in the actions and interventions of the Primary Healthcare Programs of the Hellenic Ministry of Health (thematic area 19). Its aim is to inform us what we can do to look after our health and teach us all about organ donation.
Which are the organs in our body and how do they function? What should we do in order to take care of our health? How big is our heart and which one of our organs is able to "reproduce" itself? What happens when one of our organs does not function properly? How can a physician replace this organ with a different one?
Tough questions like the above become entertaining stories through the Orgamites characters. Join our big community and our effort to build a better future, together. It’s what's inside that counts!
