Are you a health professional and/or researcher working in the field of Type 1 Diabetes in Australia or New Zealand?
If so, join our CoP
Our goal is to accelerate the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based models of care for children and young people living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). To achieve this goal, we will establish a Community of Practice (CoP) and conduct research to support its implementation.
What is a CoP?
A CoP is a group of people who share a common concern, a set of problems, or interest in a topic and who come together to fulfil both individual and group goals. CoPs focus on sharing best practices and creating new knowledge to advance a domain of professional practice.
The T1D Models of Care CoP focuses on best practice care for children and young people living with T1D. The CoP is an ANZSPED initiative supported by the Children's Diabetes Centre, Breakthrough T1D Centre of Excellence.
How can I be involved?
The CoP is open to all health professionals and researchers working in the field of T1D in Australia and New Zealand.
If you would like to join the CoP please register below. You will receive an invitation to join Basecamp, an online platform supported by NADC where we will share recordings, presentations, resources, events and a place to chat with your colleagues. Calendar invites with zoom details will be sent to registrants for future CoP sessions.
