Health Promotion in November

 November 7, 2025

 

November is a special period where IDF (International Diabetes Federation) encourages its member associations all over the world to put additional effort to raise awareness and advocate for diabetes, and people living with diabetes. So, look out for these, and talk about it with your social circle, the implication of this body condition, that might seem to be mild in the early stage, for most if not all who have the condition.

1. What is the implication to you if you have diabetes? How would it change your life? Short term, medium term, long term?
2. What does it mean if your loved ones, someone you really care have diabetes?
3. What does it mean to you if 30 or 40% of your colleagues have diabetes? How would it affect your work, your standing in the company?
4. If our society, our country men have high number of people living with diabetes, including those who are under 30 years old, how can it impact you, and me? 

(short term- in the next 5 years; medium term in the next 10-15 years, long term- >20 years) 

 I am interested to hear from you.
