KiDS

iF SOCIAL IMPACT PRIZE 2026

Safe Education for Children with Type 1 Diabetes is a national support system enabling children with Type 1 Diabetes to safely attend school and kindergarten in Kazakhstan. Designed by Diarcom around KiDS, it connects families, teachers, school nurses, kindergarten staff, healthcare professionals and public institutions through adapted educational materials, structured training and ongoing family support. The project replaces fear and isolation with a practical, replicable model — treating safe inclusion as a matter of children's right to education, not only medical management.
