This article has no abstract so we have provided the first paragraph of the full text.

The leadership of the International Society of Nephrology's (ISN's) Commission for the Global Advancement of Nephrology (COMGAN) oversees the activities of five working regional subcommittees representing Africa, Asia, Central and South America, Eastern and Central Europe, and the Commonwealth of Independent States (the former Soviet Union) and the Middle East. COMGAN's goals, which have remained remarkably constant over the years, are to assist in strengthening patient care, research, and education; to provide regional postgraduate courses; to solicit and establish institutional partnerships; to create a leadership council of representatives from developing countries; and to reinforce the programs of national societies. Courses organized by COMGAN's Continuing Medical Education (CME) program quickly became the principal mechanism for achieving these goals.
