"We had an incredible day. To commemorate this special day, my husband, two daughters and I journeyed to the Joggins UNESCO World Heritage Site. We so appreciated your efforts in creating a special World Diabetes Day Proclamation from the Joggins UNESCO World Heritage Site. In addition to the Proclamation, the book and World Heritage List Nomination Package are wonderful additions to the Resolution Torch Living Time Capsule.
To commemorate this day, we completed a Global Diabetes Walk along the beach of the Joggins Site. We also were able to place Resolution Torch Inuksuk Torch 04 at the Joggins UNESCO World Heritage Site. Included with the Inuksuk was a small, laminated card explaining the story. Although we had planned to place two inuksuks, one for each daughter present, my youngest who is two decided that she did not want to leave her blue hoop at the site she wanted to keep it. Flexibility is the key - at least one of the inuksuks was able to be placed on the Joggins site to be passed on.
Also a part of World Diabetes Day celebrations, monuments and buildings around the world are illuminated in blue. This year we made a valiant attempt to have some aspect of the Joggins UNESCO World Heritage Site lit in blue. It was definitely not the bluest of monuments around but we are already evolving our plans for how to get a better blue light for next year.
Included is further documentation of our UN-Observed World Diabetes Day activities in the form of an updated report as well as a few additional photos from the recent Joggins excursion.
