Zimbabwe could soon revive its human organ donation programme in a bid to keep up with global health technological developments.

Health and Child Welfare Deputy Minister Edwin Muguti said his government was working on resuscitating the programme. Because of its international scrutiny, Zimbabwe will craft strong legislative laws to guard it from abuse, the New Ziana paper reported.

Currently, patients requiring human organ donations have to go abroad as Zimbabwe does not have adequate and proper resources such as equipment and funds to conduct the operations.
