How can you support Diabetes Africa?
Our mission
Diabetes Africa is dedicated to improving the lives of Black, African, and African-Caribbean people living with diabetes, as well as healthcare professionals across the globe. Our mission is to provide education, resources, and support to help individuals manage and prevent diabetes and related diseases, reduce healthcare disparities, and create a healthier future for communities that are disproportionately affected by this diabetes. We can’t achieve this important work without your support.
Why your support matters
Your support helps us tackle the growing diabetes crisis in Black populations by funding culturally tailored resources, webinars, and training, while also challenging harmful misinformation and stigma. With your help, we’re equipping healthcare professionals with the knowledge and tools they need to provide better, more effective care. Our work also drives long-term change, with initiatives like white papers shaping policies to improve healthcare systems for the future. One example of this is our project in Ethiopia, where we are developing specialist training for diabetes nurses, giving them the skills to better support their communities. Thanks to you, we’re able to expand our reach and provide essential support to those who need it.
If you want to see change, don’t complain about it, do something about it”
