On Friday the 4th of March 2022, the Ministry of health held a half day meeting with journalists, media editors and media houses to discuss the theme for WKD 2022, the focus of Tanzania’s 2022 national kidney health week events and ways in which the media could join the efforts to prevent and control chronic kidney disease. There will be a figo marathon on the 12 of November 2022 to raise the awareness of chronic kidney disease, raise money to support chronic kidney disease and encourage kidney disease prevention.
