World Diabetes Day 2026

Access to Diabetes Care

The theme of World Diabetes Day 2026 is "Early Action on Diabetes". Timely access to reliable information is instrumental in ensuring swift access to care, early diagnosis, and reducing the risk of diabetes.

We support the millions of individuals managing diabetes and recognize the crucial and continuous research endeavors directed towards conquering the disease.

Elsevier empowers you with knowledge and valuable information to support the early diagnosis and risk reduction for diabetes. On this World Diabetes Day, we present some of the cutting-edge research published in our Endocrinology journals.
