08:00, Berlin, Germany
The 33rd Annual Scientific Meeting of the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) will take place in Berlin from Wednesday 26th to Saturday 29th September 2007.
The ISPAD Annual Meeting is a great opportunity for all professionals involved in the science and care for children with diabetes to “network” with colleagues from all over the world. The special atmosphere of Berlin, Germany’s rapidly transforming capital at the cultural and financial intersection between East and West, will inspire you to cultivate old connections and to make new friendships.
The challenges and therapeutic options for youth with diabetes are developing at a rapid pace, but emotional issues should not be overlooked. As 2007 will be proclaimed as the “Year of the Child with Diabetes” the motto of the Meeting will be “Diabetes in Motion”. We hope to move ahead in Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetology by making the best of our new chances without giving up past achievements.

It is with great pleasure that we invite you at attend the 34th Annual Meeting of ISPAD in Durban, South Africa. Once more you would have the opportunity of meeting colleagues, friends and members of the ISPAD family to discuss the latest developments in scientific research and clinical practice.
The epidemic of type 1 and type 2 diabetes that is being documented in the western world is also being experienced in developing countries. ISPAD has taken the visionary and courageous step of holding the next ISPAD annual meeting in a developing country for the first time. It is now the time to recognize the universal occurrence of diabetes in children and adolescents. It is time to convert the gains made in the political into improving and advancing the care of children with diabetes throughout the world. For colleagues from developed countries, this would be the usual high quality scientific meeting. For colleagues in developing countries, this is an unusual opportunity to improve the care and scientific endeavors thereby ADVANCING DIABETES CARE.
Durban, with its unique mix of African, Asian and European culture forms the ideal backdrop to a meeting that promises a different and enriching experience in the African soil of the South.
The Local Organizing Committee looks forward to hosting you in Durban, South Africa.
