Asima Haq Of Unilever Shares Her Thoughts On This Collaboration
“For years, Lifebuoy has been more than just a bar of soap- It is a lifesaving product, offering superior germ protection and spreading awareness on the importance of hand hygiene. During the pandemic, Lifebuoy was the first brand to lead the message of washing hand regularly with any soap. The brand also partnered with numerous organizations to spread its message to consumers. As the next step in this journey, Lifebuoy wants to enable access to good quality and affordable medical advice to millions across Pakistan. Currently, 50% of the population does not have access to doctors. With this partnership, Lifebuoy is fulfilling its promise and purpose of saving lives via providing free, 24/7 consultation with qualified doctors across Pakistan. This collaboration also enables female doctors who presently face limited career opportunities through flexible working models.”
