Type 1 diabetes mellitus is a rare chronic condition in young Korean people. The prevalence of diabetes in adults 30 years and older reached 4 million in 2011 and the number of children and adolescents with diabetes is estimated to be at 57.5 per 100,000 as of 2011. But no precise data is available on the overall prevalence of type 1 diabetes in Korea. Some experts predict the prevalence to be below 1%. Therefore, most of the time, type 1 diabetes patients are treated as same as type 2 diabetes. Adolescents with type 1 diabetes accept much of the responsibility for their own care. Intensive management can delay the onset of microvascular complications as well as slow the progression. Therefore, improving self-management is a critical factor in making a difference in the course of type 1 diabetes. Diabetes self-management education is essential for all individuals with diabetes who want to achieve successful health-related outcomes. In most diabetes practices, intensive education is provided at diagnosis with follow-up education as needed. One could argue that everyone would benefit from periodic courses on details of diabetes care. Participants’ lifestyles, knowledge, skills, attitudes, and disease characteristics change over time so that ongoing education is necessary and appropriate. So diabetes camp is an ideal place for continued education of adolescents with diabetes. Several studies have shown that diabetes camp has a beneficial effect on knowledge and self-management of the disease. In this topic, current status of operation and support in KDA 2030 Camp will be discussed.
