Message from the President

For FUPADI it is an honour to be a member of IDF. It means having organizational, scientific and general support in the work we do for people with and without diabetes. Health is a fundamental right of every human being, and sharing responsibilities with IDF makes us stronger and allows us to pursue new challenges. Our wish is that the International diabetes Federation continues with the advocacy work towards the hope of millions of people, which is a cure for diabetes, sure it will be a reality in no time very far. “
