World Diabetes Day (WDD) is celebrated every year on November 14 and the campaign is led by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and its member associations and engages millions of people worldwide in diabetes advocacy and awareness. Diabetes education and prevention is the WDD theme for the period 2009-2013.
This year, Diabetes WA has chosen to coordinate a campaign to support workplaces, National Diabetes Service Scheme (NDSS) access points and healthcare providers to highlight the importance of prevention and early detection of type 2 diabetes.
