Mission Statement
The Regional Subcommittee has identified the following major obstacles to the advancement of nephrology in their respective region:
- Lack of good medical infrastructure, partially due to inadequate links between local opinion leaders, medical societies and movers with government;
- Lack of interest (no CME credits required in many countries);
- Lack of resources for local guidelines.
