The universal symbol for diabetes.
The purpose of the diabetes symbol is to give diabetes a common identity.
Until 2006, there was no global symbol for diabetes.
It aims to: support all existing efforts to raise awareness about diabetes
inspire new activities, bring diabetes to the attention of the general public
brand diabetes provide a means to show support for the fight against diabetes
No child should die of diabetes
Diabetes is fast emerging as one of the most serious health problems of our time – a global epidemic that claims more lives each year than HIV/AIDS.
Children with diabetes in the developing world are particularly vulnerable. Many lack access to proper care and the life saving medicines they need. As a result, they become chronically ill; many die quickly, while others develop severe complications such as kidney failure, blindness and nerve damage.
