World Kidney Day
 14 March 2013

The 2012 Campaign focused on the positive outcome of kidney transplantation and the life-saving aspect of organ donation. The slogan for the 2012 campaign was
Donate  -  Kidneys for Life  -  Receive.

I'm a patient

Many people are currently not aware that their kidneys are damaged and they might find out too late. The need for dialysis or transplantation can be avoided 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 2012. Our 2012 theme on Transplantation, Donate  -  Kidneys for Life  -  Receive, is one of major importance and we have high challenges to face!
