Abstract
in English, French

Usually inaugural editorials are written by the Editor-in-Chief to describe the scope and vision for the journal to potential authors and readers. This editorial is written by the Editor-in-Chief, the Deputy Editors and the Associate Editors collaboratively as a clear signal that this is a unique and different journal. We will build this journal on a set of principles which are fundamental to improving the outcomes of patients with kidney disease. To that end, we aim to be supportive, to collaborate, to integrate multiple perspectives and to be open to possibilities.

Habituellement, il revient à l’éditeur en chef de rédiger l’éditorial inaugural décrivant la vision et les champs d’intérêts d’un nouveau journal. Le Journal canadien de la santé et de la maladie rénale a choisi de faire les choses autrement. En effet, cet éditorial est le fruit de la collaboration entre l’éditeur en chef et les éditeurs en chef adjoints. Ce journal s’appuie sur des principes qui seront fondamentaux pour améliorer le sort de patients atteints de maladie rénale. Pour y arriver, nous nous engageons à apporter du support aux auteurs, à collaborer, à intégrer différentes perspectives et être ouverts à des nouvelles possibilités.
