Women's Mental Health Teleconsultations in Pakistan

Progress on access to brain health

At Lundbeck, we view sustainability as a shared, global responsibility. It’s why our Sustainability Strategy is based on the UN Sustainable Development Goals.  

Advancing UNSDG 3, Good Health and Well Being, is core to our strategy.

That’s why we teamed with ReliveNow, a Pakistan-based telehealth platform that provides virtual, affordable and culturally appropriate mental health services, on an initiative to combat the taboo associated with women’s mental health. With support from Lundbeck, ReliveNow hosted a series of events aimed at helping women learn about depression and available interventions. 

In 2021, ReliveNow hosted 5 events sponsored by Lundbeck such as “Start Talking: Depression - it’s not just a phase” aimed at helping women to learn about depression, its symptoms and available interventions.

Whether it be genetics, age, race, sex, ethnicity, socio-economic determinants or access to healthcare, understanding and fully evaluating the multitude of factors that influence a person’s health are key to both the development of good medicine and equitable advances in brain health. Since adopting our Access to Brain Health strategy in 2020, Lundbeck has taken a number of proactive steps in our 2030 Access to Brain Health strateg
