📢On Tuesday, IDF Europe were pleased to launch the T2GETHER Advocacy Training Programme - a new pilot initiative co-designed with members of the T2GETHER community, it aims to support people living with type 2 diabetes (hashtag ) to become confident, informed and impactful advocates.
👉The programme offers a structured learning journey combining expert-led sessions, peer exchange and practical advocacy training. Over six modules, participants will explore topics including:
💙 Understanding T2D and its wider impact
🤝 Advocacy foundations and the power of peer support
🗣️ Storytelling and using data for advocacy
🫀 Understanding the cardio-renal-metabolic complex: an integrated approach
🌍 Stigma and language: shaping perceptions, changing narratives
📈 In-person event – From learning to action: planning an advocacy project
🎯Through shared learning and collaboration, T2GETHER members are supported to deepen their confidence, strengthen their voices and expand their impact as T2D advocates at the national and European level.
🙌Participants will play an active role in shaping the future of the programme – helping build a stronger,more connected and more influential T2D advocacy community across Europe.
🤝Alongside the valuable feedback shared by all participants, experienced T2D advocates have also joined the programme to share their expertise, advice and perspectives to help further strengthen the content, format and delivery of the programme. A big thank you to them for their ongoing support and contributions.
🚀This programme reflects the ongoing commitment, collaboration and leadership of the T2GETHER community in strengthening T2D advocacy at the national level and across Europe.
