Our Ecosystem
UsAgainstAlzheimer's
Our collaboration
We are partnering with UsAgainstAlzheimer's (UsA2) and the Davos Alzheimer's Collaborative (DAC) to create a unified visual framework of the shared risk and resilience factors and common outcomes across the domains of mental health, neurological health and workplace performance. This view could help employers identify cross-cutting areas of opportunity that promote employee brain health, support a brain skills-driven workforce, and ultimately enhance economic outcomes for their organizations. UsA2 is engaged in a relentless pursuit to end Alzheimer’s, the sixth leading killer in America. Their work centers on prevention, early detection and diagnosis, and access to treatments – all regardless of gender, race, or ethnicity. UsA2’s Business Collaborative for Brain Health is developing resources to optimize cognitive health for better business results and healthy longevity. MHI's collaboration with UsA2 and DAC will involve presenting this framework to cross-sectoral audiences across major convenings such as the Brain Days at the Science Summit of the 79th UN General Assembly.
