The ISN-led Global Environmental Evolution in Nephrology and Kidney Care (GREEN-K) initiative has launched its Joint Statement on Procurement (JSP).
GREEN-K is now seeking support from kidney health societies worldwide to help build a shared approach to procurement that benefits patients and the environment.
The JSP provides a global framework to guide more environmentally responsible and ethical procurement of kidney care products while improving affordability, equitable access and the resilience of kidney care services. It emphasises that patient outcomes and continuity of care must remain central to purchasing decisions.

The GREEN-K Steering Committee developed the JSP over two years with input from procurement experts and global clinical and industry stakeholders. The committee represents eight organisations: the African Association of Nephrology, the Asian Pacific Society of Nephrology, the Canadian Society of Nephrology, the European Kidney Health Alliance, the European Renal Association, the International Society of Nephrology, the Latin-American Society of Nephrology and Hypertension and the United Kingdom Kidney Association.
