WDF funded a total of 15 new projects in Africa, the Middle East and Asia in the first half of 2020.
Three new projects in West Africa and Comoros are part of a new WDF collaboration with the French Development Agency that will consolidate national responses to diabetes care and prevention. Two more, in Jordan and Tanzania, address the COVID-19 pandemic in humanitarian and low-income settings.
The remaining projects offer innovative approaches to diabetes prevention, integrated care, and care of diabetes complications in selected settings around the world.
