Extensive research on diabetes prevention and care has been conducted globally. However, there is still a gap between scientific knowledge and its implementation in policy and practice globally. Additionally, much of existing research originates from high income countries which often cannot be translated or transferred to other settings.
To address these challenges, Resolution 74.4 of the 2021 World Health Assembly (WHA) urges Member States 鈥淭o strengthen monitoring and evaluation of diabetes responses, through country-level surveillance and monitoring systems, including surveys, that are integrated into existing national health information systems, and by identifying priority areas for diabetes research.鈥.
To reach this goal, in 2023, the WHO developed a prioritized diabetes research agenda in collaboration with the Universities of Geneva and Sydney and the financial support of the Geneva Science-Policy Interface. WHO wished to formally launch this new diabetes research agenda, through regional engagement, and the Americas region has been selected for this launch.
