Every day we use our knowledge, expertise and resources to find new ways to positively impact public health, which in turn advances other global development objectives. We call this approach to global health “Entrepreneurship for Good,” and we are committed to using this approach to help achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
In the Annual Review, we share more about our commitment to the UN SDGs. Some of the 2016 achievements include:
Along with these achievements, Pfizer also increased its position on the Access to Medicine Index among the top 20 pharmaceutical companies from position 16 in 2014 to position 14 in 2016. Several factors contributed to our higher score, including structured donation programs, nearly doubling the size of our pipeline through research and development efforts, widespread enhancements of pricing, manufacturing and distribution efforts and strengthening our approach to building supply chains.
