Our Mission

Our mission is to end the significant harm caused by diabetes in New Zealand.

To achieve this, there are five key outcomes we want to see from the research we fund:

  1. More New Zealanders will live well and more confidently with diabetes.
  2. More New Zealanders with diabetes will have the tools and proper care they need to take control of their diabetes.
  3. More New Zealanders at risk of diabetes will have the tools and proper care they need to prevent the condition.
  4. More New Zealanders will be in remission from type 2 diabetes.
  5. Fewer New Zealanders will get type 2 and gestational diabetes, with better prevention measures.
