| مستخلص: | Background: Today, Brazil is the second country of the world in number of transplants. Nonetheless, waiting lists are getting longer. This lack of organs occurs mostly because of people's reduced knowledge about the donation process. With the aim of changing this scenario, in 2013 and 2014, "Organ Donation Week" events were held at the Federal University of Health Sciences of Porto Alegre. Methods: During the 2 years, documentaries followed by a cycle of debates with experts in this area were exhibited. In 2013, a "flash-mob" took place, with the purpose of performing a "transplant waiting list" around the perimeter of Santa Casa's Hospital Complex. In 2014, a morning full of educational activities was planned for the pediatric patients from the Santo Antônio Children's Hospital and their relatives. Results: It is estimated that approximately 1774 people were directly reached by the projects. Among these people, we can include medical students, healthcare professionals, university staff, transplanted patients, and their families. We believe that education and consciousness are central points in the donation and transplant process. Through this project, we could inform people about it, solving their doubts and myths and stimulating this kind of conversation among the family circle, making the moment when the family must make the decision much easier. Conclusions: Education and public awareness are essential for enhancing the number of organ donations. Therefore, events such as "Organ Donation Week" should be encouraged among medical schools.
