KitNewCare is a pioneering EU co-funded project to make kidney healthcare more environmentally sustainable. Recognising healthcare’s role in global carbon emissions (5-11%), the project focuses on kidney care, an area with significant disease burden and resource footprint, as a model for systemic sustainability change.
Mission
KitNewCare identifies and develops sustainable solutions to reduce carbon emissions in healthcare by at least 40% (compared to 1990 levels). Starting with the selected clinical sites and then expanding to associated pilots, the project’s mission is to improve health outcomes, reduce environmental and social impacts, and costs.
Learning Courses
Discover how healthcare professionals can drive change through our tailored learning courses on sustainable kidney care. Designed in collaboration with clinical partners, these modules provide practical knowledge and tools to reduce environmental impact while maintaining high-quality patient care.
