On November 28, at a High-Level Technical Summit, IDF Europe and WHO Europe signed a Declaration, recalling the urgent need for accelerating action on commitments to improve diabetes detection and quality of care. Since then, we have been encouraging individuals and organisations to endorse the Declaration to show policymakers that more needs to be done to improve the lives of PwD and those at risk.

Read more about the background of the Declaration here.

What is needed now?

We need to further raise awareness of the urgent need to act NOW! As well as collecting reasons why members of our community have already signed the Declaration, we continue to build on the momentum and gain more support for the Declaration.
