Ganesh J Kadam on 04th August 2019. The venue was Acharya Vinoba Bhave Vichar Kendra in Dharampeth, Nagpur.
Dr. Ravi Wankhede, Director of MOHAN Foundation Nagpur delivered the talk. In his talk he explained the concepts of organ donation, brain death and the donation process. He listed the organs and tissues can be donated after brain death and natural death and also gave information about living donations. He explained how it is impossible to come back to life following brain death and that organs from a brain dead person can save more than eight lives if his/her family consents to organ donation.
