By learning directly from adults living with type 2 diabetes, this study aims to help define stigma-free healthcare and inform improvements in diabetes care.
What does the study involve?
If you choose to take part, you will complete an online survey. The survey includes:
A few short questions about you (such as your age, gender, county of residence, education, and how long you have lived with diabetes). These help us describe the group of people taking part.
Open-ended questions where you can share your healthcare experiences and your thoughts on what stigma-free diabetes can mean.
The survey will take about 20-25 minutes and can be completed at your own pace. You may pause the survey and return later on the same device to continue where you left off.
