title	What will WMDA and its members do?

Update and promote donor care standards that reflect evidence, best practice and ethical considerations.
Examples: make standards relevant to both related and unrelated donors; triennial review of mobilising agents guidelines (G-CSF)
Example: develop and maintain guidelines in relation to donor consent/counselling
Collect, analyse and report data relating to adverse events and reactions and share insight with members and regulatory authorities. Example: roll out new and improved online SEAR/SPEAR reporting system for both related and unrelated adverse events and reactions
Improve, maintain and promote WMDA’s Donor Medical Suitability Wiki. Example: respond to infectious diseases outbreaks (e.g. Zika); expand Wiki to include the screening of cord blood donors.
In collaboration with transplant societies ensure that a professional training programme for transplant centre staff working with donors is available.
Help WMDA members to inform and influence national and international authorities and other stakeholders (e.g. WBMT EBMT), so that voluntary stem cell donation and donor care is supported.
Celebrate the contribution made by donors. Example: World Marrow Donor Day
Explore the role of WMDA in relation to research involving donors Example: develop ethical principles and guidelines and explore possibility to maintain a register of donor research dissemination research findings.
