MDPI Webinar | World Kidney Day (Session 2), 12 March 2026
We are delighted to invite you to the World Kidney Day 2026 Webinar, taking place on 12 March 2026, with the theme of “Kidney Health for All: Caring for People, Protecting the Planet”. This webinar highlights the urgent need to advance prevention, early detection, and equitable access to kidney care while also addressing the environmental impact of kidney disease and its treatments. Climate-related risks such as air pollution, heat stress, and dehydration are increasingly linked to kidney disease, and the resource-intensive nature of some therapies underscores the importance of more sustainable healthcare practices.
The webinar will feature leading experts from research, clinical practice, and public health who will share insights and strategies to improve kidney health outcomes across diverse populations. The session aims to foster collaboration, raise awareness, and support actions that protect both people and the planet through more equitable and sustainable kidney care.
