National Diabetes Week highlights the impact of diabetes, the fastest-growing chronic condition in Australia. Around 90 people develop diabetes every day in Victoria. All types of diabetes can cause further health complications.

This year, Diabetes Victoria is shining a spotlight on access to diabetes technology. Affordable access to diabetes technology is both life changing and lifesaving. We will continue to advocate for equitable access to technology, including insulin pumps, Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) systems and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for all Victorians living with all types of diabetes.
