Silicon Central Mall, Dubai's premier shopping and lifestyle destination, is proud to announce the launch of a comprehensive mental health awareness campaign as part of its corporate social responsibility initiatives. This pioneering campaign aims to promote mental health, reduce the stigma associated with mental illness and build a supportive community environment.
Silicon Mall is the first mall in the UAE to launch this initiative. By advocating for mental well-being, Mal seeks to improve individual morale and productivity, while creating a positive community impact. Educating the public about mental health issues reduces stigma, encourages open communication, and fosters a supportive environment where individuals feel comfortable seeking help.
Shirazul Khan, Silicon Central Mall Manager, said: “Promoting mental awareness is critical to an individual's well-being, which in turn boosts their morale and productivity. This campaign provides the resources, support and education needed to lead healthy communities. We are dedicated to making a lasting impact through our CSR initiatives.”
Ongoing activities and support
As part of the campaign, Silicon Central Mall has partnered with well-known mental health advocates, including Faqih University Hospital and Life Medical Center. These partnerships bring expert guidance and support to campaign activities, such as educational workshops and seminars: providing valuable information and insights on various mental health topics; Awareness Campaigns: Spreading awareness about mental health issues through various means; Support groups and counselling: providing support and counseling sessions to those in need; and physical fitness and wellness programs: promoting overall well-being through fitness and wellness activities.
This month, Silicon Central Mall is excited to introduce Open Minds, a psychiatric, counseling, and neuroscience center located within the mall.
This new addition ensures clients easy access to professional mental health services in a convenient and accessible location.
“We are proud to be the first mall to launch this kind of CSR initiative. Our goal is to create a supportive community that prioritizes mental health and wellness,” added Khan.
