Since its creation in 1991, World Diabetes Day, organized every November 14, has been the symbol of collective mobilization. Its objective is to raise awareness of diabetes, its management and, above all, ways to prevent it. In Mayotte, from the age of 30, almost one person in six is diabetic, twice the national level, and among these sick people, almost one in two are unaware of it!
For each edition, local associations organize events, meetings, conferences, stands to disseminate information… These are times of friendly exchange and awareness of prevention, to live better, eat better, move more… Also , four actions will be organized by RéDiab Ylang 976:
– A Pharmacy Screening Campaign (Every morning in November, except weekends) in participating pharmacies.
– A Visit to the Hajangua Agricultural Farm (Morning of Tuesday, November 14). This initiative aims to raise awareness among diabetic patients of the benefits of local food for their health.
– A company screening in Panima (Morning of Tuesday, November 14).
– A Health Village 2023 (Morning of Saturday November 18) of which Miss Excellence Mayotte will be the godmother. The event will be held from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., Place de la Mairie in Labattoir. On the program: health advice, sports sessions, gifts to win, and above all, free and anonymous screenings for diabetes and hypertension.
