Diabetes care is multidimensional due to complex interactions between environmental, lifestyle, clinical, and genetic factors. These unique complications, along with access to continuing care, education, and medication, strongly influence the clinical course. According to the latest edition of the IDF Diabetes Atlas, approximately 463 million adults (20-79 years) were living with diabetes in 2019 and this number is expected to rise to 700 million by 2045. Additionally, 1 in 2 people with diabetes in 2019 were undiagnosed [1]. Gan & Lee understands the importance of supporting online educational resources and advocacy initiatives for people affected by diabetes. "The International Diabetes Federation is delighted to welcome Gan & Lee as a partner to support our global awareness, advocacy and education initiatives. In a year that marks the centenary of the discovery of insulin, coordinated and collaborative action to ensure affordable and uninterrupted care and education for every person living with diabetes, regardless of where they live or their economic circumstances, is more important than ever," said Prof. Andrew Boulton, President, International Diabetes Federation.
