The World Diabetes Day 2007 Monument Challenge, which encouraged landmarks around the world to light up in the colour of the World Diabetes Day logo on 14 November, exceeded all expectations. Over 320 monuments and other buildings all over the globe rose to the challenge and lit up in blue as beacons of hope for the 246 million people living with diabetes. IDF thanks all those individuals and associations that contributed to securing a blue lighting in their area, making the success of this initiative possible.
