Diabetes Day.

World Diabetes Day.


A few years ago in most of the world is celebrated World Diabetes Day, whose purpose is to make known the causes, symptoms, treatment and complications associated with the disease. This day reminds us that diabetes is on the rise and will continue this trend unless we take action now to prevent this huge growth.


World Diabetes Day (DMD) is the world's most important diabetes awareness campaign. It was established by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1991 in response to the alarming rise in diabetes worldwide. In 2007, the United Nations celebrated for the first time this day after the adoption of the World Diabetes Day Resolution in December 2006, making it an official UN health day.

It is celebrated every year on November 14th. This date was chosen as the anniversary of Frederick Banting who, along with Charles Best, conceived the idea that would lead to the discovery of insulin in October 1921. Many events take place during or around that day, but the campaign Develops throughout the year.



This day brings together millions of people in more than 160 countries to raise awareness about diabetes, including children and adults affected by diabetes, health professionals, decision makers in health and the media. Numerous local and national events are organized by member associations of the International Diabetes Federation and other diabetes-related organizations, practitioners, health authorities and individuals committed to diabetes. World Diabetes Day unites the global diabetes community by producing a powerful diabetes awareness voice.  


The international diabetes community, which includes member associations of the International Diabetes Federation, diabetes organizations, NGOs, health departments, and businesses, is engaged in a wide variety of activities, targeting diverse groups. Some of the activities organized every year are: 
  • Radio and television programs 
  • Sport activities 
  • Free screenings on diabetes and its complications 
  • Public Information Meetings 
  • Campaigns for posters and brochures 
  • Exhibitions and workshops on diabetes 
  • Press conferences 
  • Articles in newspapers and magazines 
  • Activities for children and teenagers 
  • Illumination of monuments 
  • Human Blue Circles 
  • Runs or walks


The World Diabetes Day logo is a blue circle, this worldwide symbol of diabetes was created as part of the "United for Diabetes" awareness campaign. The logo was adopted in 2007 to commemorate the approval of the United Nations Resolution on World Diabetes Day. The meaning of the blue circle symbol is incredibly positive. In many cultures, the circle symbolizes life and health. The color blue represents the sky that unites all nations, and is the color of the United Nations flag. The blue circle symbolizes the unity of the international diabetes community in response to the diabetes pandemic.


Also on this day are the advances in treatments and in the search for the cure of diabetes. We can all integrate to this day and thus be able to understand a little more of what this disease is about.
