Making More Health
Description
Making More Health (MMH) is a long-term initiative, driven by Boehringer Ingelheim, to identify new and better ways of improving health globally. Making More Health (MMH) is a long-term initiative, driven by Boehringer Ingelheim, to identify new and better ways of improving health globally. Since MMH started in 2010, a huge number of MMH initiatives have been launched by sourcing social innovation to provide more health in the future.
How it works? The company has embarked on a journey with our partner Ashoka, the largest network organization of social entrepreneurs worldwide, to explore the field-based activities of people around the world known as ‘social entrepreneurs’. These are individuals who implement new ideas to improve health in their communities putting their system changing ideas into practice on a global scale.
Under the umbrella of Making More Health we drive Youth Venture programs inside and outside the company. And we involve our Boehringer Ingelheim employees on a global level into Making More Health activities.
Making More Health is an initiative where business and social values can be combined to unleash innovation and achieve both: economic and social progress.

A wonderful update concerning our #MMH activities in South India: We`re looking forward to open our third kindergarten in Kerala this month. Institutions like that are important in India as they offer more services besides taking care of the children: The teachers are also #health educators for parents and young adults. More information will follow soon :-)
Saleh Ahmad is a Somalian refugee who took a 1st right step into German society. He attended the #MMH integration4health workshops in Ingelheim several times, getting deeper insights into German culture and traditions. Now he is able to provide his Somalian fellows with basic information about the know-how of living in Germany. Moreover, Ahmad supported #MakingMoreHealth team members in translating the #refugee guide into Somali language which contributes to overcome the language barriers factor. Thank you Ahmad! What do you think about Ahmed's contribution?
Why Business Leaders Make the Best Social Entrepreneurs
An interesting topic to discuss: #Social entrepreneurship is all the rage these days. Millennials in particular seem to be attracted to the combination of being their own boss and having their careers. This means something beyond making a buck selling products and services. But if that’s your goal, you’d be far better off cutting your teeth in the conventional business world first: https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/292224
