IDF Task Force on Insulin, Test Strips and Diabetes Supplies

To obtain support from member associations
from developed countries:
identify and partner with a member
association in a developing country
find sustainable solutions to increase
accessibility to insulin and diabetes supplies
in that country

That member associations from developed
countries will consider twinning with a select
number of associations in developing countries
to initiate and carry out projects to improve
accessibility.
The intention is to work with a small number of
associations instead of trying to tackle the
problem globally. The successful twinning
projects could then be adapted and used as
models for others.
