SamenvattingMigrant populations in western societies like The Netherlands have a higher prevalence of diabetes compared to the native population. The overall objective of this thesis is to find support for the hypothesis that vitamin D deficiency plays a contributing role in the high prevalence of diabetes among migrant populations in The Netherlands in order to outline possible recommendations regarding vitamin D supplementation and lifestyle-measures.
