Abstract

Before any published Belgian law, EU Directive, and/or EU Action Plan, the donor advocate was naturally a member of the transplantation team performing living kidney donation. The need of donor advocacy appeared obvious with liver living donation, which was and is still a risky procedure. Today, it is clear that the donor advocacy must not be limited to living donation but extended to brain-dead and cardiac-dead donation. Nevertheless, its complexity will need experienced persons in the field of organ donation as well as transplantation, while remembering that patients' first right is the right to donate.
