Joint project between WHO Egypt and KSrelief delivers 11 000 renal dialysis sessions for Sudanese patients in Egypt in 2025


 By the end of 2025, WHO Egypt in collaboration with the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief), had enabled the provision of 11 000 dialysis sessions and 1166 essential medicines to Sudanese patients in Egypt with renal failure through a joint project led by the Ministry of Health and Population.

The project, launched in July 2025, aims to benefit more than 1000 patients in Egypt displaced by the war in Sudan who are suffering from renal failure.

Funded with US$ 3.6 million dollars from KSrelief, the project aims to ensure that both renal transplant patients dependent on medication and those dependent on dialysis have access to continuous treatment.
