The Public Health Agency of Canada is committed to helping prevent diabetes through several activities, one of which is the Type 2 Diabetes Prevention Challenge. The Challenge has reached the last stage of the three-stage approach, with the selection of seven finalists by the panel of expert judges. Each finalist will receive a $600,000 prize, for a total of $4.2 million to implement and generate evidence that their developed approach is effective in helping address the risks and barriers that lead to being at an elevated risk for type 2 diabetes.
