The impact of social environment and educational level on public knowledge and attitudes towards organ donation: Can we do better?

Organ donation (OD) is affected by legislation, cultural and ethnic background, and knowledge and attitudes play a crucial role in promoting that concept. The present study aimed to assess differences in education level, perception, and willingness towards OD among Bosnian immigrants living in Sweden and respondents living in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
