Abstract

Lasting improvement in access to, and outcomes of, kidney transplantation will take sustained focus and coordinated effort. Further gains in transplantation access and outcomes are immediately available with directed attention on racism, cultural safety, equity and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander-led change by our kidney communities and change makers. Transforming our entrenched systems will not be easy, but it must be done.

In this Perspective article, we focus not on re-expressing the trauma of exclusion and racism experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in renal care, but instead focus the discussion on what must be done to systemically change care delivery going forwards...
