The increase in rates of diabetes across the globe brings with it an increase in diabetes complications. Poor diabetes management, whether through lack of education, limited access to care or undiagnosed conditions, means diabetes complications are a real problem in most countries.

Following the successful launch of this new congress series in Hyderabad, India in 2018 this meeting gives an update on the latest research, treatments and tools to manage, treat and prevent diabetes complications. The ultimate goal is to improve outcomes and quality of life for people with diabetes.

The IDF Virtual Congress 2021 is organised in collaboration with the Portuguese Diabetes Association (APDP)
