Our global network is growing stronger, broader and more connected.
The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) is delighted to welcome 14 new association members from 14 countries across five IDF regions. The new members were officially confirmed by the IDF General Assembly on 30 June.
This brings IDF’s global network of association members to 264 national diabetes associations across 163 countries and territories and marks another important step in expanding international collaboration to improve diabetes care, prevention, education and advocacy.
