“The Abidjan Declaration in Support of Kidney Care in the African Continent” was launched during the AFRAN’s 2023 congress in February in Cairo, Egypt.
Kidney health advocates will use the document to engage with national governments and international organizations to make clear the need to prioritize the prevention, detection and treatment of kidney disease in health policies.
The ISN continues to explore new partnership possibilities to advance kidney health on the global NCD agenda and highlight the clinical, economic and social burdens of kidney disease in low and middle-income countries.
