Contextualizing Evidence for Action on Diabetes in low-resource Settings: a Mixed-methods case study in Quito and Esmeraldas, Ecuador. The research proposed in this project addresses one of the leading health challenges in the 21st century worldwide: the relentless increase in diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes is considered to be the cause of over 80% of deaths from non-communicable diseases. Quito Esmeraldas
