Mission
Betting on the potential of culture as a common language and acting as an interpreter of values,
we overcome the boundaries and barriers that stand between people, such as countries, regions, and times, to solve the problems of human society.
Purpose
By positioning cultural decline as a "social problem" and identifying issues and their solutions,
we will create the soil for society to value culture. Crossing the border between Japanese and foreign cultures will foster a sense of kinship that transcends national borders.
