World Diabetes Day | #LanguageMatters: fighting diabetes stigma | About the #dedoc° voices program

14 November is World Diabetes Day. This day commemorates the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, the scientist who first discovered, isolated and administered insulin in one of the greatest medical breakthroughs in history. On World Diabetes Day, 14 November 2024, #dedoc° hosted a virtual community in event in partnership with the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). During the event, we heard from diabetes advocates and members of IDF member organisations and learned how they celebrate World Diabetes Day in their country — and what they are advocating for on this special day.
