The Type 1 Diabetes Foundation of India (“T1DF India”) was born in 2020, right before the Covid-19 pandemic wave hit India. In a one of its kind voluntary meeting of persons living with diabetes, caregivers, healthcare providers and diabetes communities there was a resonating will to create a collaborative umbrella organization for type 1 diabetes, that can focus on blind spots of the arenas in which traditional diabetes communities and healthcare providers work in.

 

A year later, here we are - a pan India organization driven by persons living with type 1 diabetes ("T1D"). We’re a registered charitable trust and non-profit headquartered in Bengaluru, India. We are techies, entrepreneurs, lawyers, counsellors and healthcare workers. And together we’re constantly exploring new areas to work on so that all persons living with T1D live a superior quality of life, with access to healthcare and education, and our voices are heard with the powers that design and implement policy.
