ABOUT Diabetes Info NZ

Purpose

A trusted, reflective place for people and whānau living with (all types of) diabetes in Aotearoa New Zealand. Diabetes Info NZ helps people deepen their understanding of diabetes, navigate their journey, and meet the challenges that arise along the way.

History

Diabetes Info NZ has evolved from Learn More About Diabetes, which was originally published in the UK in 1998 by Karen Reed under Reed Biomedical. The project has continued to grow and adapt to meet the needs of people living with diabetes in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Structure

Diabetes Info NZ is the umbrella identity for three core elements:

• Learn MORE About Diabetes — deep dives into the underlying science
• YOUR Diabetes YOUR Life! — practical tools and reflections for everyday life with diabetes
• Crossroads and Choices — a framework for navigating change
