UC Leuven-Limburg in Leuven, Belgium, hosted a screening of the award-winning documentary, Hard To Believe. This event was part of their ‘International week 2019’. The audience consisted of PBA Nursing students, lecturers and their international colleagues.

Hard To Believe, produced by Swoop Films, is a documentary that examines the issue of forced live organ harvesting from Chinese prisoners of conscience, and the response—or lack of it—around the world.

Afterwards ETAC’s Benelux Manager, Elke Van den Brande, presented on further developments since the film. The China Tribunal was introduced and students were invited to spread the word and to join ETAC’s Student Movement.

One of the students, Anton Dolhain, gave his first reaction after watching the documentary.

“I can raise awareness, but the actual changes will be made by the politicians. They need to improve the law. They need to change it everywhere, otherwise it won’t stop.”

Due to its great success, the screening will be repeated two times during the upcoming 2020 edition of UC Leuven-Limburg’s international week.

A list created by "Nature"on the top ten most influential scientists of 2019 gave a nod to Wendy Rogers, a bioethicist at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia who has been investigating forced organ harvesting of prisoners of conscience in China. She cited our documentary "Hard To Believe" that she viewed at a conference in 2015 as one of the main catalysts that inspired her to engage in the issue beyond research into activism. Her research team found wide-ranging evidence of the Chinese Communist Party's atrocities in what they labeled in their investigations as "one of the world’s major bioethical scandals." Check out her story below!

Our film “Hard To Believe” had been used as evidence against the Chinese Communist Party in its mass killing of prisoners of conscience. The tribunal’s final verdict was that China under the Chinese Communist Party was a “criminal state” and that mass killings of innocent civilians were taking place to sell their organs.

The verdict of the tribunal and its findings are hoped to be used to urge international organizations to take action.

Independent people’s tribunal is established to investigate forced organ harvesting in China

At the initiative of the International Coalition to End Transplant Abuse In China (ETAC) an independent Tribunal has been established to inquire into forced organ harvesting from, amongst others, prisoners of conscience in China. The Tribunal expects to publish its findings in early-mid 2019.

How Can We Help This University?

This week we faced an unexpected situation. The representative of a bioethics department of a U.S. university had previously been excited to be able to provideHard To Believe to their students and faculty, because of its specific relevance to medical ethics and bioethics. However, a week later, that excitement turned into something else altogether.
