Approximately every fifth Slovak is obese and every other is overweight. These findings gave birth to a project called Diateens - the youth-oriented project aimed at the prevention of diabetes mellitus. The patronage over the project as one of the educational programme within the National Diabetes Programme, was assumed by the Slovak Diabetes Society and the Slovak WHO Office. The purpose of the project was to improve the awareness of young people about diabetes mellitus, ascertain the general state of their health and support a healthy lifestyle (healthy behaviour) as an important component in the prevention of the disease.

Keywords: diabetes mellitus; Diateens; heathy way of life; obesity; overweight; prevention
