• This article presents the methodology and recommendations from a consensus conference hosted in May 2011 by the Physical Activity and Nutrition for Diabetes in Alberta (PANDA) research project. The goal of the conference was to create physical activity and nutrition recommendations for people with type 2 diabetes. The PANDA research project’s mission is to develop practical, convenient and easy-to-use strategies to assist people with type 2 diabetes in living fuller lives. The project involves a multidisciplinary and collaborative team of researchers at the University of Alberta. Researchers and practitioners can use the recommendations from the consensus conference to implement actions (e.g., launch programs or resources) that meet the needs of persons with diabetes, while the general public can use the recommendations to become more educated about diabetes.
