SDCC strategy 2022-2032

​Our ambition with this strategy is to forge a clear common direction for everything we do at Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen (SDCC), and for everyone who works here. We must all work towards the same goal. Therefore, our ambition is for the strategy to stimulate enthusiasm and interest to be part of SDCC. ​​

The strategy points towards 2032, when SDCC can celebrate its centenary. This is because we know that making a real difference entails a long hard struggle. SDCC already provides first-class diabetes treatment. But we believe that we can do even more for people with diabetes or people who are at risk of developing diabetes.

The strategy identifies our overall priorities and objectives. These will be converted into specific action throughout the strategy period, so that we can approach our vision. We will supplement the strategy with specific, cross-sectoral action plans with shorter time horizons, and underway we will put particular focus on the various elements in the strategy. The strategy will also set the direction for everyday work at SDCC. New ideas and activities will be tested by questioning: Do they support the strategy?
