Message from the President
“The Argentina Diabetes Federation (FAD), as an umbrella organisation, looks after the interests of people living with diabetes and their environments. At FAD we emphasise through diabetes education ‘to know more and better’ about diabetes, allowing individuals to ‘do’ and ‘make others know’ to alert and reduce the impact of the pandemic on the population. Being part of IDF allows us to be stronger and carry forward the mission that defines us: Transforming information into education and education into prevention. It is an honour to be part of this international organisation and to be recognised by it.”
