Capturing kidney care journeys on camera<\/h3>\n

From an indigenous community in Canada to rural areas in Sri Lanka, and from transplant journeys in India to stories of care in Colombia, the ISN Community Film Event harnesses the voices of patients, families, and healthcare workers around the world to spotlight the challenges and resilience that shape kidney care.<\/p>\n

Since it launched in 2019 at WCN\u201919 in Melbourne, Australia, more than 220 films from over 50 countries have shown what\u2019s possible when lived experience meets storytelling. These stories don\u2019t just raise awareness\u2026 they empower others to act.<\/p>\n
