Infosys (NSE: INFY) (BSE: INFY) (NYSE: INFY), a global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting, announced a strategic collaboration with Mental Health Foundation Australia (MHFA) to further amplify mental health awareness, with the creation of a mobile app called 'Supportive Mind'. This app designed by Infosys for MHFA, will aim to provide first aiders and communities in Australia and New Zealand with accessible, real-time mental health resources.
This initiative is part of Infosys' Corporate Social Responsibility commitment to using technology to foster community well-being. By bridging gaps in mental health awareness, the app seeks to offer actionable solutions for proactive self-care and support.
The 'Supportive Mind' app addresses the growing demand for accessible mental health support, particularly for individuals who find it difficult to maneuver busy lifestyles, owing to work, education and personal or family commitments. The app offers a comprehensive range of features to help users prioritize their well-being and adopt simple, beneficial habits in their daily routines. Key features include mood tracking and insights, personalized activity recommendations, walking challenges, fundraising campaigns, self-care tools, and wellness tips delivered via push notifications.
The app will initially launch through pilot programs in the education, corporate, and community sectors. Leveraging Infosys' cutting-edge AI stack, Infosys Topaz—an AI-first set of services, solutions, and platforms built on generative AI technologies—the app will analyze performance metrics to effectively measure its social impact.
Professor Melissa Green, Chairperson, Mental Health Foundation Australia, said, "We are thrilled to introduce Supportive Mind to the public in collaboration with Infosys. This app showcases our commitment to improving physical and mental health through innovative solutions. With Supportive Mind, users can easily incorporate well-being activities into their daily lives, helping them achieve a healthier, happier lifestyle."
Andrew Groth, Executive Vice President, Asia Pacific, Infosys, said, "At Infosys, our purpose is to amplify human potential and create opportunities for people to thrive. We understand the critical role mental health awareness plays in building inclusive, supportive communities. Our collaboration with MHFA to develop a scalable digital solution underscores our commitment to leveraging innovation to make mental health support accessible to everyone, wherever they live or work. We are excited to see this initiative drive meaningful change for individuals and communities alike."
