Introduction: Registration rates on the Australian Organ Donation Register in many of Australia’s migrant communities are disproportionately low compared to the national average. Previous initiatives have framed this disparity within a culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) lens or characterised these communities as difficult to engage, assuming a resistance to organ donation. Our recent co-created survey found registration rates within Sydney’s Indian community were low, primarily due to a lack of understanding about Australia’s organ donation system, highlighting the need for strategies tailored to distinct cultural groups, rather than CALD communities in general. The next phase of our research was a community-led co-creation project that involved producing and evaluating nine short conversational videos addressing questions and concerns about the process of organ and tissue donation in Australia. These videos were designed and produced by an Indian Community Advisory Panel for their community. The aim and focus of this evaluation phase, was to determine whether members of Sydney’s Indian community would, engage with videos about “organ donation and registration”, in a naturalistic, non-experimental setting.
