Diabetes Action Canada is proud be a member of the World Health Organization’s Global Diabetes Compact. The Compact, which has a vision of, “responding to the increasing burden of diabetes around the world,” was launched in 2021 to coincide with the 100^th anniversary of the discovery of insulin.

Comprised of members from diabetes organizations around the globe, Diabetes Action Canada looks forward to learning from other members and supporting the Compact’s goals of “ensuring that all people who are diagnosed with diabetes have access to equitable, comprehensive, affordable and quality treatment and care.”

DAC’s Patient Engagement lead, Linxi Mytkolli will represent the Network at Compact meetings.
