Using living environments to enrich communities and health

Targets

To revitalize communities and improve people’s health by improving living environments and to create places where people can live for many years to come. In recent years, there has been a lot of discussion about damage to houses caused by natural disasters and health problems such as heat shock and heat stroke caused by inadequate insulation. In addition, with the declining population, the increase in the number of vacant houses has also become a social problem. By renovating houses, we will improve the health of those who live in them, create houses that can be lived in for years to come, and revitalize local communities.
