â¹ûÖ±²¥

Everything â¹ûÖ±²¥ does – every investment, every policy, every service – is to support our diabetes community. 

Today, â¹ûÖ±²¥ members have voted to modernise our Constitution in order to formalise that purpose. We are very pleased that 98% of voters supported this important change. 

The centrepiece of this reform is a structural shift that places people living with diabetes, and those at risk, at the heart of our governance. It is a clear statement that â¹ûÖ±²¥â€™s work will be driven by, and for, the diabetes community. 

With 88 years of history behind us, â¹ûÖ±²¥ is looking to the future – a future that is rich with optimism for innovations that will transform, for the better, the lives of people living with diabetes or at risk of developing the condition.  

Our refreshed Constitution will maintain strong governance that is future-focused and will support us to grow our impact on behalf of people living with diabetes. 

â¹ûÖ±²¥ thanks the Boards of Australian Diabetes Educators’ Association (ADEA) and Australian Diabetes Society (ADS) for their support. â¹ûÖ±²¥, ADEA and ADS look forward to continuing to work together for the benefit of people living with and at risk of diabetes. Together we can be more than the sum of our parts.  

â¹ûÖ±²¥ is taking this next step with confidence and purpose, ensuring we continue to strengthen and evolve our impact for people living with and at risk of diabetes.
