About World Diabetes Day
In 1991, the International Diabetes Union (IDF) and the World Health Organization (WHO) established the World Health Organization (WHO) to address the global threat of diabetes, and was officially recognized by the United Nations in 2006. November 14 is also the birthday of Dr. Bunting, Canada, who discovered insulin.
Currently, it is one of the world's leading disease awareness-raising days with more than 1 billion people from 160 countries around the world, and the diabetes awareness campaign around this day is the importance of diabetes prevention and continuation of treatment. It is an important opportunity to inform the public about
The World Diabetes Day campaign uses the Blue Circle as a motif, which is a symbol used from 2007, the year after the adoption of the United Nations Resolution on diabetes. We have designed “blue,” which represents the United Nations and the sky that continues to endless sky, and a circle that represents unity. We are promoting a campaign to curb diabetes, along with the catchphrase unite for Diabetes.
