Did you know that 1 in 10 people worldwide is living with kidney disease — often without knowing it?
Kidneys play a vital role in keeping our bodies healthy, yet kidney disease is frequently called a “silent disease” because symptoms may not appear until the condition is already advanced.
On 12 March, we recognise World Kidney Day — a global reminder of the importance of prevention, early detection, and equitable access to kidney care.
This year’s theme, “Kidney Health for All: Caring for People, Protecting the Planet,” highlights the need to care not only for patients but also to build more sustainable healthcare systems for the future.
Take a moment today to learn about kidney health, encourage screening, and support those living with kidney disease. Small actions can have a big impact.
