Summary
Keidanren will revise its Charter of Corporate Behavior with the primary aim of proactively delivering on the SDGs through the realization of Society 5.0. Member corporations should fully recognize that their development is founded on the realization of a sustainable society, and they should exercise their social responsibilities by creating new added value and generating employment that will be beneficial to society at large and by conducting their business in a manner that takes the environment, society, and governance (ESG) into consideration. Corporations should also encourage behavioral changes not only within their own corporations, but also in their group companies and supply chains, and, by fostering partnership and collaboration with a diverse range of organizations, act toward the realization of Society 5.0 and through that, deliver on the SDGs.
