On November 14th, SolidarMed joined the global community in observance of World Diabetes Day, collaborating with the Ministry of Health and Child Care, the World Diabetes Foundation, and PEN-Plus Partnerships to enhance awareness around diabetes prevention, care, and management.

This year's theme, "Diabetes and Well-being," underscores the vital importance of welfare for individuals living with diabetes. By working together, we can empower communities, improve health outcomes, and strive for a world where no one is left behind in the battle against diabetes.

In honor of World Diabetes Day, SolidarMed Zimbabwe conducted screenings for diabetes and oral health issues within the community as part of our ongoing NCD Project. Additionally, a diabetes awareness march was held at Nyika Growth Point, focusing on educating the community about diabetes and overall well-being.

Through these initiatives, we aim to raise awareness, inspire proactive health management, and provide essential care to those in need. Together, we are making strides toward a healthier community!
