4. SURVEYS AND RESEARCH ON IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE
IN THE CREATIVE ECONOMY

Building community capabilities aims to improve people’s capacity to communicate well, create new ideas, and form new networks. These kinds of activities create new potential for the generation of creative business ventures.

We will empirically examine whether or not the existence of social capital serves to reduce risk and inequality that may exist in a community. In addition, we will investigate the social security systems that impact quality of life and carry out research on employment systems particularly in terms of work-life balance. These studies will be used as the basis for designing infrastructure and systems of society that operate on the basis of fairness and efficiency.
