Application/Key learning points: DHA’s TRADE Best Practice Benchmarking project to reduce the pre-diabetic population in Dubai was awarded the highest grade of 7 stars by the Dubai Government Excellence Program. The UAE has the tenth-highest rate of diabetes in the world (15.2% of Dubai’s population is diabetic and 15.8% are pre- diabetic). The project involved extensive desktop research and benchmarking visits to nine organisations. Of key importance was that DHA recognised that it could not tackle Diabetes on its own and needed to work closely with other stakeholders. The project is on track to reduce the pre-diabetic population by at least 10% by 2021.
