The education and prevention of diabetes is the issue of World Diabetes Day for the period from 2009 to 2013. The campaign calls for all those responsible for diabetic care to understand diabetes and take control.

In this way:


  • - For people with diabetes it is a message about training through education.
    - For governments it is a call to implement effective strategies and policies for the prevention and control of diabetes that safeguard the health of citizens.
    - For health professionals it is a call to improve their knowledge through evidence -based recommendations, and put these recommendations into practice.
    - For the general public, it represents a call to understand the serious impact of diabetes on society and point measures to know how to avoid or delay diabetes and their complications.

The 2009-2013 World Diabetes Day campaign has the objectives:


  • - Encourage governments to implement and strengthen diabetes prevention and control policies and complications.
    - Disseminate support tools, at the national and local level, for diabetes prevention and control initiatives and their complications.
    - Disseminate the importance of evidence based on the prevention and control of diabetes and its complications.
    - Increase awareness of diabetes alert signs and promote actions that foster early diagnoses.
    - Increase awareness and promote actions to reduce risk factors, which can be modified, type 2 diabetes.
    - Increase awareness and promote actions to prevent or delay the complications of diabetes.

Good analysis about the situation of diabetes in Spain for your part Owash.I find it a bit sad and not very hopeful, hopefully we stay how we are and fight and thanks to science (not Spanish that we already know how research in Spain) the thing improves and a beautiful sun comes out.
