WASHINGTON e INGELHEIM, Alemanha, 8 de dezembro de 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Três vencedores cujas iniciativas estão solucionando problemas dos mais urgentes no campo da saúde surgiram do desafio "Mais Saúde: Melhorando a Vida de Pessoas, Famílias e Comunidades", um desafio realizado pelo Changemakers da Ashoka e a Boehringer Ingelheim, uma das 20 empresas líderes globais do setor farmacêutico.

As soluções dos vencedores descrevem novos modelos de entrega de cuidados em saúde em comunidades de extrema pobreza, mobilização singular de recursos humanos para expandir a capacidade de clínicas médicas e abordagens holísticas para uma saúde sustentável. O público votou e escolheu três vencedores dentro de um grupo de finalistas selecionados por um painel de jurados especialistas. Estavam entre os jurados Aman Bhandari do Departamento de Saúde e Serviços Humanos dos EUA, Carol A. Dahl, diretora executiva da Fundação Lemelson, e Prof. Andreas Barner, presidente do Conselho Diretor da Boehringer Ingelheim. Mais de 470 inscrições foram recebidas de 82 países.

"Oferecer mais saúde para os indivíduos, famílias e comunidades requer novas estratégias e novas formas de pensar", disse o Prof. Andreas Barner, presidente do Conselho Diretor da Boehringer Ingelheim. "Estou impressionado com a qualidade das soluções inovadoras que participaram desse desafio. Ser capaz de identificar iniciativas deste calibre é um ativo importante para o campo da saúde."

O desafio online faz parte da iniciativa global de três anos liderada pelo Changemakers da Ashoka e pela Boehringer Ingelheim para identificar e apoiar iniciativas inovadoras ao redor do mundo que estejam transformando o campo da saúde e melhorando de forma sustentável o bem-estar de indivíduos, famílias e comunidades.

"O desafio "Mais Saúde" é o primeiro passo em direção a um maior impacto no campo da saúde e dos cuidados em saúde ao redor do mundo", completou Diana Wells, presidente da Ashoka. "Nós estamos entusiasmados que a Boehringer Ingelheim tenha decidido se engajar em uma parceria de três anos para continuar o seu apoio aos empreendedores sociais com criatividade única e orientação para seguir adiante com uma questão urgente e global."

Cada vencedor receberá um prêmio de 10 mil dólares. Os vencedores são:

  • ColaLife: Transporta medicamentos em cadeias produtivas de cola para salvar vidas em comunidades de baixa renda na África, Zâmbia
  • Saúde Criança: Soluções holísticas de saúde para famílias em risco social, Brasil
  • Unidos pela Visão, Gana
