Taking action on ESKD
The second Global Kidney Health Summit in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates delved into the pressing issues surrounding end-stage kidney disease (ESKD).
There is no framework for low-resource countries to implement or extend programs for kidney care, prevention and treatment. This Summit revealed the socio-economic and geographic barriers to better care, gaps in the organization, knowledge, and practice of the global healthcare workforce, and some of the challenges governments face in establishing and/or maintaining quality ESKD care.
Based on the outputs, we will establish several action points under the themes of advocacy, sustainability, equity and integration.
