The IWGDF produces international, multidisciplinary, evidence-based Guidelines to inform health professionals all over the world on the prevention and management of diabetic foot disease. To stimulate local implementation, we encourage translation of our documents.
Over the years, the IWGDF Guidelines have been translated in more than 25 major languages. Please find in the menus below the most recent translations in various languages. Older translations are not available digitally, because the information is outdated.
All translations can be freely downloaded. Please do refer to the original authors and translators when using the work.
Please contact us if you are interested in translating the IWGDF Guidelines in your language, or if you have any other question regarding translation.
For local implementation plans and support, our friends and colleagues from D-Foot International are the experts.
