Start planning next World Kidney Day now! 10 March 2011

The 2011 Campaign will focus on the important link between Chronic Kidney Disease and Cardiovascular Disease and the fact that Chronic Kidney Disease is a major risk for Cardiovascular Disease. The slogan for this year’s campaign is Protect Your Kidneys and Save Your Heart.

I'm a patient

Many people are currently not aware that their kidneys are damaged and they might find out too late. Dialysis and transplantation can be prevented if kidney diseases are detected early. As a patient—there is something you can do—share your story and raise awareness of the risk factors for kidney disease with friends family and people you meet and you might just save a life!

I'm a medical professional

As a medical or allied health professional you are at the forefront of combating kidney diseases around the world through early detection and prevention approaches.

Many of your patients may be at risk and we call on your proactive involvement.

I'm a sponsor

World Kidney Day would not be possible without the support of our sponsors. We have great ambitions for 2011. Our 2011 theme, Protect Your Kidneys and Save Your Heart , is one of major importance and we have high challenges to face!
