World Kidney Day HistoryWorld Kidney Day aims to raise awareness about kidney health and kidney disease. The day focuses on the crucial role kidneys play in the overall health and advocates for effective measures to prevent and manage kidney conditions. This international awareness campaign emphasizes regular screening for early detection, the connection between diabetes and hypertension as key risk factors for chronic kidney disease, and the need for kidney health education in all sectors of society. World Kidney Day has been celebrated worldwide since 2006, including in Canada. The Canadian Society of Nephrology has played a vital role in promoting this event across the country, highlighting the fact that nearly 4 million Canadians either have kidney disease or are at risk. The day sends a pressing message, appealing to Canadians to take proactive steps towards the prevention and early detection of kidney disease. It reminds Canadians to maintain a healthy lifestyle, get routine check-ups and stay informed about kidney health. In observance of World Kidney Day, various activities are organized throughout Canada. These include educational seminars, awareness walks, free screening programs, and public talks. Building on the theme of living well with kidney disease, focus is also given to patient empowerment and importance of inclusion in decision-making processes related to treatment.
