SOCIETY

Since our establishment in 1872, we have offered products and services to enrich the lives of people everywhere, responding to everchanging social values and the diverse needs of humanity.

The prolonged COVID-19 pandemic that has spread worldwide has had an unprecedented effect on society and has forced many people to question their beliefs and re-examine the way they live. In particular, it has had significant consequences for groups who were already exposed, such as highly vulnerable women.

Going forward, we strive to promote a broader range of social values. By offering various avenues of education, we aim to move away from monoculture, stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination to nurture a society of diversity and inclusion.
