We are thrilled to announce our partnership between ISPAD and Action4Diabetes (A4D).

Action4Diabetes (A4D) is a UK-registered charity committed to close the gaps in T1D care throughout South-East Asia by enabling access to free life-saving medical resources and support systems for young people living with T1D.

Our partnership focuses on improving health outcomes for young people with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) in South-East Asia, where limited access to care and education create unique challenges. By combining ISPAD's expertise with A4D's implementation of innovative solutions, such as their multilingual online education platform HelloType1, we aim to enhance T1D education and awareness across the region, leading to improved health outcomes for young people living with T1D
