Events - World Kidney Day 2025 Webinar – Are Your Kidneys OK? Detect Early, Protect Your Kidney Health

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is often called a “silent killer” because it can develop unnoticed until significant kidney damage has occurred. The 2025 World Kidney Day theme, “Are Your Kidneys OK? Detect Early, Protect Kidney Health”, highlights the importance of early detection and prevention to safeguard kidney function.

This webinar brings together leading experts in nephrology, dietetics, and patient advocacy to discuss the major risk factors for kidney disease, the importance of early detection, and both primary and secondary prevention strategies. Participants will gain valuable insights into proactive steps they can take to maintain kidney health and prevent disease progression. Through expert presentations and an interactive Q&A session, attendees will leave with practical knowledge on lifestyle modifications, medical interventions, and the significance of early diagnosis in at-risk populations.
