World Diabetes Day 2024
World Diabetes Day is November 14
Thursday 14th November 2024.
Diabetes research has led to better understanding and the development of new technologies and new medicines that have transformed the lives of people living with all types of diabetes.
Australia has world-class researchers but over the last ten years investment in diabetes research has fallen, even as the number of people living with all types of diabetes continues to increase.
Through our own Diabetes Australia Research Program we have invested more than $36 million over the past 12 years to support vital research projects.
Take action this World Diabetes Day by supporting diabetes research. The next groundbreaking discovery could be just around the corner.
Diabetes research changes lives
Diabetes research has transformed the lives of people living with all types of diabetes.
People like Tanya who lives with type 1 diabetes and whose quality of life has 'skyrocketed' since she was diagnosed in 2002 thanks to advancements in technology.
And Sarah who lives with type 2 diabetes and who, thanks to the latest diabetes medicines, is able to manage her diabetes better than ever which is 'multi-pronged and no easy feat'. And 74-year-old Wendy who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at just five-years-old and was told she'd be lucky to make it to 30.
Tanya, Sarah and Wendy's lives have been changed thanks to research. But there is still a lot we don't know about diabetes and research is the only way we will learn more and drive change to prevent, treat and, ultimately, cure diabetes.
