-Online- Social Impact Day 2020

-Online- Social Impact Day 2020

　Can Social Impact Management help achieve:
　A sustainable and just society?
　A society in which divergent values can thrive and diverse choices are respected?
　A society that guarantees the dignity of those who have life difficulties?

The rapid spread of the new coronavirus infection, which no one could have predicted just a year ago, is forcing us and the whole world to make transformative changes. One of these changes is the shift to a new type of capitalism; from shareholder capitalism to stakeholder capitalism. We need to consider and appreciate a variety of social and environmental values that cannot be measured by conventional monetary values, and work to ensure that these values are produced in an optimal manner in our business and activities, with a result that these new values flow freely, and are reinforced and cherished in society.
How can social impact management contribute to this transformation? What can we glimpse from the latest global trends, growing practice in Japan in the private, non-profit, and government sectors, and the development of new standards and frameworks? We will introduce and discuss various aspects of the social impact management in practice and draw up the future we are aiming for.
