I feel that there needs to be more awareness about diabetes among students and school staff in Maldives. Even the health teachers in schools should have more diabetes awareness training. Diabetes educational initiatives can further basic knowledge about diabetes.

One initiative to bring diabetes education to schools is led by the Diabetes Society of Maldives who organise screening and awareness sessions to fight stigma and promote healthy lifestyles.

Additionally, the government of Maldives should increase diabetes information sessions and activities in schools to fight diabetes-related stigma and promote healthy lifestyles.
