BHI is a global non-profit and uses a cutting-edge approach to protecting brain health, promoting brain performance, and preventing and fighting brain illness across the lifespan. The BHI is building brain healthy communities, cultures that promote brain healthy lifestyles, foster protective factors and address risk factors, thereby improving brain health and optimizing brain performance outcomes at the individual and community level.

The BHI faculty are identifying and building global partnerships to inform and educate, conduct research, accelerate innovation, and engage a diverse group of stakeholders within the community to bring high-quality, culturally responsive, and equitable evidence-based brain, mind, body health promotion, prevention, and intervention as part of a multi-tiered system of support.

The World Economic Forum has identified the BHI as a strategic collaborator to build and pilot eco-systems of change, living laboratories, to promote societal health and resilience outcomes, with an explicit focus on brain, mind, and body health, performance, and wellness across the lifespan. The focus is on increasing healthy lifestyle behaviors by 2050 so that fewer people, of all ages, experience lifestyle-related diseases, including brain illness.
