14th November is World Diabetes Day. Diabetes can impact people across all life stages, including childhood, the reproductive years, working age and older adulthood. The theme of this year’s WHO World Diabetes Day, 'Diabetes across life stages,” recognizes that every person living with diabetes should have access to integrated care, supportive environments and policies that promote health, dignity and self-management. This campaign emphasizes the importance of a life-course approach to diabetes prevention, management and overall well-being. The key messages include: 1. Diabetes can affect people at every stage of life; 2. From childhood to older age, diabetes prevention and care efforts must be integrated across life stages; and 3. Supporting well-being and self-care empowers people with diabetes at every age. World Diabetes Day provides an opportunity to raise awareness about diabetes as a critical global public health issue. Join us in raising awareness, spreading knowledge and creating lasting change for all affected by diabetes.
