Kidney transplants save lives—but access isn’t fair. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people face more barriers at every step. At the 2025 NIKTT Gathering, we called for real change.

This #WorldKidneyDay, stand with us. Read & endorse the 2025 Position Statement: niktt.com.au/positionstatement

The NIKTT met with Assistant Minister Ged Kearney today at @sahmri.bsky.social to keep her updated on our work & advocacy. We made it clear further work is needed to improve transplantation equity, & that it must be grounded in Community governance.
