About this event

World Diabetes Day (WDD) is the world’s largest diabetes awareness campaign reaching a global audience of over 1 billion people in over 160 countries. It is marked every year on 14 November, the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, who co-discovered insulin along with Charles Best in 1922.

The theme for WDD 2024-26 is "Diabetes and wellbeing" to raise awareness about the need to support diabetes patients with their emotional and mental wellbeing.
