Schoolchildren, their families and teachers will be given training in managing diabetes, as officials grapple with rising numbers of people suffering from the lifestyle disease.
In 2015, the UAE had one million cases, health officials announced on Thursday, citing figures from the International Diabetes Federation (IDF).
As health officials launch programmes to increase disease awareness, improve patient care and educate on eating right, facts and figures suggest that much more still needs to be done.
According to the IDF, 1,384 people died due to diabetes in the UAE in 2015, while 387 in 1,000 were undiagnosed. Figures also suggest that the UAE is among the countries with the highest incidence of diabetes in the region, with a prevalence of 14.6 per cent in adults above the age of 60.
