World Kidney Day

World Kidney Day is celebrated every year worldwide on 2nd Thursday of March.

World Kidney Day 2026 carries a powerful and timely message: “Kidney Health for All: Caring for People, Protecting the Planet.” This theme compels us to recognise that kidney health is not determined solely by genetics, diabetes, or hypertension; it is increasingly shaped by our environment, climate, and working conditions. As a transplant surgeon who has witnessed the evolution of kidney care in Nepal, I believe this year’s theme speaks directly to our national reality.
