The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) launched the Kids and Diabetes in School (KiDS) project in collaboration with the International Society for Paediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) and Sanofi Diabetes to inform and teach school staff, children and parents on the management of diabetes in school. Brazil and India were chosen as pilot countries.
The evaluation was conducted using a qualitative methodology using semi-structured face to face in-depth interviews. Five out of fifteen schools were selected, where teachers and parents of children with and without diabetes were interviewed. Interviews took place one and three months after the implementation of KiDS.
Diabetes knowledge among the school staff and parents of children without diabetes was very limited prior to the KiDS Project in both countries. After introducing the KiDS information pack both groups mentioned increased knowledge on the management of diabetes. This was reflected through healthier food choices at school and the encouragement of physical activities. Increased awareness and understanding in the school staff were observed by parents of children with diabetes.
The KiDS project received positive feedback on the educational materials. The pack was deemed informative, interesting and engaging, creating increased awareness and understanding among school staff, parents and children. The project has created a demand for diabetes intervention in schools. The pack has been translated into fourteen languages and was downloaded over 17,000 times by November 2018.
国际糖尿病联盟(IDF)与国际儿童和青少年糖尿病学会(ISPAD)以及赛诺菲糖尿病公司合作开展了“学校中的儿童与糖尿病”(KiDS)项目,旨在向学校工作人员、儿童和家长宣传并教授糖尿病的学校管理知识。巴西和印度被选为试点国家。
采用定性方法进行评估,通过半结构化面对面深入访谈。从15所学校中选取了5所,对有糖尿病和无糖尿病儿童的教师及家长进行了访谈。访谈在KiDS项目实施后的1个月和3个月进行。
在这两个国家,KiDS项目开展前,学校工作人员和无糖尿病儿童的家长对糖尿病的了解非常有限。在引入KiDS信息包后,两组人员均表示对糖尿病管理的知识有所增加。这体现在学校更健康的食物选择以及对体育活动的鼓励上。患有糖尿病儿童的家长观察到学校工作人员的意识和理解有所提高。
KiDS项目在教育材料方面获得了积极反馈。该信息包被认为内容丰富、有趣且引人入胜,提高了学校工作人员、家长和儿童的意识与理解。该项目引发了学校对糖尿病干预措施的需求。该信息包已被翻译成14种语言,截至2018年11月已被下载超过17000次。
