The Gakken Group promotes its business in collaboration with employees, customers, shareholders, investors, suppliers, local communities, and government agencies to realize its philosophy and create social value.
By actively engaging in dialogue with all stakeholders and incorporating their feedback into our business, we will contribute to society and realize the Group’s growth.
We believe that we can make society a better place as our Group’s publications, educational services, and healthcare and nursing services contribute to enriching our customers' lives. We sincerely listen to our customers and work to develop and provide better merchandise and services to help them build a life of well-being.
Our focus lies in building strong relationships of trust with all stakeholders, including shareholders and investors, by providing accurate management information equitably as well as opportunities for dialogue. We will proactively provide various communication opportunities, including online formats, with the General Meeting of Shareholders as a priority.
In order to realize a truly sustainable society, we will carry out procurement activities that take account of environmental conservation, safety, and human rights, with our suppliers. This is a social responsibility that both parties must fulfill. We will continue our dialogue to achieve better services and procurement together.
If you cannot enjoy yourself, truly creative content will not be born, and if you cannot get involved wholeheartedly, you will not provide services that appeal to customers. The Gakken Group will collaborate with its employees to develop training systems that allow each employee to continually see their growth and create an environment where they can work without worries.
The Gakken Group contributes to local communities through our collaborative projects with local governments and other organizations, as well as through our CSR activities. These activities are not limited to Japan and are expanded globally to address challenges. The Group also collaborates with various foundations and research institutes to offer assistance and conduct research with respect to education. In the healthcare and nursing domain, Gakken's Community-based Integrated Care System unifies the Gakken Group's resources, including elderly housing, elderly and nursing care, welfare for children (people) with disabilities, childcare support, medical and nursing content, educational services, and human capital development, and promotes its unique community development with comprehensive lifestyle support in collaboration with the community.
