Abstract
In this presentation I shared Aruba's journey as a model of best practices for implementing national diabetes and NCD frameworks, with civil society organizations playing a leading role. I showcased (community-driven) initiatives and programs embedded among key stakeholders, generating measurable impact. I had the opportunity to connect these experiences to the broader global agenda, including the WHO Global Diabetes Compact, the integration of treatment coverage targets into operational and monitoring systems, and strategies for resource mobilization and advocacy. Finally, the case of Aruba was positioned within the global diabetes community as an example of how small island states can contribute valuable lessons to global health governance.
