Our Mission Think about care, Make lives better, Innovate our welfare We believe that social work and nursing are not a mere labor, but highly specialized professions that aim for the best interests of the person involved. These actions are taken to improve their lives. Life is all about the little things: fresh air, sunlight, good meal, and cleanliness. We practice these to organize life every day. We take action to make recommendations and request concrete reforms from government and local decision-makers. Targets of Our Action 1. We provide nursing care and social work to people who need supports, such as the elderly, people with disabilities, children, and people in poverty. 2. We offer supports those who cannot be covered by the official system. For example, food banks, providing meals and securing housing. 3. We protect abused children and people in need, provide them with housing, support their daily lives, and provide psychological support. Children who have been abused need support even when they become adults. We provide counseling and support for their education and daily life. Our Philosophy 1.Evidence-Based Practice We practice care and social work scientifically based on human anatomy and physiology. We advocate the voices of the "silent people" and act their best interests. 2. Social Responsibility We, FUKUSHI GAKUDAN are a public interest corporation certified by local government.

The organisation reflects its members' shared concern for the future of humanity and the planet. The association sees its task as acting as an independent, global catalyst for change. The objectives of the Association are therefore: to identify the key issues that are critical to the future of humanity; to evaluate alternative scenarios for the future and assess risks, choices and opportunities through integrated and forward-looking analyses; to develop and propose practical solutions to the identified challenges; to communicate new insights and knowledge from these analyses to decision-makers in the public and private sectors, as well as to the wider public; to stimulate public debate and effective action to improve the prospects for the future of humanity and the planet. The Association's activities are guided by the following three complementary principles: 1. the need to adopt a global, systems-oriented perspective in analysing the problems facing the modern world, recognising that the increasing interdependence of nations and the globalisation of previously local problems create challenges that are beyond the capacity of individual countries. 2. the need for a comprehensive, holistic approach in order to gain a deeper understanding of the complexity and interconnectedness of both current problems and practical solutions, in political, social, economic, technological, environmental, psychological and cultural terms, which the association refers to as the 'world problematique'. 3. the need to emphasise transdisciplinary and long-term perspectives, which are all too often neglected by governments and other decision-makers, and to focus on those decisions, strategies and measures that will determine the fate of present and future generations. The aim is to arouse public interest and provide responsible decision-makers with a solid basis for formulating and implementing future-oriented measures. The association does not pursue any commercial purposes and does not seek to make a profit.
