It's time for children, parents, and educators to meet the "Orgamites", a group of characters that were created so as to guide, explain, solve questions, and share their knowledge of the human body and of organ donation; of a world full of life-saving superheroes.
Health care and organ donation become part of public education in Greece. The knowledge and understanding of the most basic body organs, next to their function and protection, enter the school curriculum for the first time – as is the case with the phrasing that (totally and literally) applies to the health sector: “Appearances don’t matter much, it’s what’s inside that counts.”
The “Orgamites” become the vehicle to open up a discussion on health, the most basic body organs, transplantation, as well as organ donation, in the hope that increasingly more people will choose to become donors or, as we call them, “life-saving superheroes.”
