The growth of T2DM in Iran is predicted to be even greater than the global trend. So a new public health movement to effectively prevent and manage T2DM is required more than ever. The solution has lain in the heart of the Ottawa Charter, the first international conference on health promotion more than 30 years ago. The charter contains five useful actions to facilitate the process of diseases prevention and control: 1) building healthy public policy, 2) creating supportive environments, 3) strengthening community action, 4) developing personal skills, and 5) reorienting health care services toward promotion of health. The charter articulates health in all policies and their frameworks. The aim of this review is to examine how the five actions have been implemented in Iran and can serve as a guide to prevent and control diabetes. Several national case studies will be examined to illustrate the challenges facing Iran's health system. It enables the identification and sharing of best practice between countries.
