Message from the President
As we have similar goals to IDF, it is an honor to be part of an internationally renowned institution formed by associations of healthcare professionals, people with diabetes and many members of society who are involved in diabetes education and counselling. IDF provides us with scientific reports and the opportunity to participate in their World Diabetes Congress every two years. This allows us to update ourselves to best support our people with diabetes.
