On 28 January 2025, from 15:30 to 17:30 CET, EKHA will host its annual European Kidney Forum policy event at the European Parliament in Brussels.
This year’s European Kidney Forum, titled “Early Detection, Better Outcomes: Advancing Kidney Disease Screening in the EU,” will highlight the critical need for timely detection and screening of kidney disease. The event will feature contributions from healthcare professionals, patient advocates, and policymakers.
Hosted by Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) Tomislav Sokol (EPP, Croatia) and András Kulja (EPP, Hungary), the Forum will be held in a hybrid format—at the European Parliament with limited in-person capacity, and via livestream. The programme includes a Roundtable discussion followed by a networking reception.
