Season 3, Episode 08: Diabetes Awareness Month – ISPAD 2022 Reflections and November Intentions
The month of November is all about diabetes awareness.
In this solo episode, Pam highlights some of her experiences at the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes Conference (ISPAD 2022) in Abu Dhabi, as well as some upcoming initiatives at Diapoint.
The theme for Diabetes Awareness Month 2022 is Access. Our initiatives and work support people to get access to information and supplies, and encourages them to seek out qualified medical support when possible. Whether it’s insulin, supplies, information or support, people with diabetes need access to all of these things to manage the condition.
We will share more information about our local, Dubai screening of The Human Trial when you are able to reserve your tickets.

Disclaimer: It should go without saying that the Diapoint podcast is not intended as or should not be used as personal medical advice. You will hear us interview medical experts and others, but please always always ask your qualified doctor, diabetes team or other expert about your health. What works for one person does not always work for another person. What you should always do when you discover any new health information is ask YOUR doctor about it. This information should empower you to have a discussion with your healthcare providers about it. Diapoint, our guests, sponsors and business partners are not here to replace that advice. Living a full, healthy life means taking the proper medical advice from your qualified physicians, diabetes team or other healthcare providers.
