The Latin American Renal Cancer Group (LARCG) was founded in 2013. This is a non-profit collaborative group designed to foster scientific knowledge in all areas of kidney cancer, and to establish international cooperation among well-recognized oncologic institutions. Since its creation, LARCG has reported data from Latin America to the scientific community and has promoted accredited information and advocacy principles for patients, lay people, and medical colleagues. Currently, it consists of 44 centers in 7 Latin American countries and Spain. In this paper, we report our achievements in assistance, teaching, research, and advocacy, and we discuss the successful international collaborations.
