The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare is implementing the Smart Life Project (SLP), a national initiative under the slogan "Let's Extend Our Healthy Lifespan!" The goal of the project is to enable all citizens to lead healthy, happy, and active lives until the very end of their lives.
The project encourages specific actions in four key areas: "moderate exercise," "balanced diet," "no smoking," and "medical checkups and screenings." It works in cooperation with businesses, organizations, and local governments participating in the project to promote the further extension of healthy lifespans.
As part of this initiative, the "Let's Extend Our Healthy Lifespan! Salon" will be held as an event for companies and other organizations involved in the SLP to share information, exchange ideas, and discuss best practices in health promotion.
In this salon, in addition to lectures by experts, there will be presentations of case studies from companies and organizations engaged in health promotion, providing valuable insights and fostering discussions to support the advancement of future health initiatives.

Reports

【【Reflection】】
In this program, best practices from four organizations engaged in health promotion were introduced, with a focus on those participating in the Smart Life Project. The initiatives presented by each organization were beneficial to the participants and were expected to enhance their understanding and awareness of health promotion.
Following the presentations, participants shared information and exchanged opinions regarding future challenges and goals for health promotion, based on the best practices introduced. Due to the extensive content of the first part, the time allocated for discussion in the second part was shortened, and some participants expressed concerns about the time distribution. Nevertheless, the program as a whole proved to be meaningful.
Furthermore, through interactions among participating organizations, new possibilities for collaboration have begun to emerge, and synergistic effects are anticipated in future initiatives. This program is expected to serve as a catalyst for fostering and enhancing awareness of health promotion.

【【Post EXPO Initiatives】】
Through this program, participating organizations were able to share the challenges and achievements encountered in the process of promoting health initiatives. This exchange helped raise awareness of health promotion among the participants and is considered to have contributed to motivating future activities.
By continuing similar initiatives, it is expected that both individuals and companies will further cultivate and enhance their “health awareness” and “motivation,” ultimately leading to the development of a nationwide movement for better health across society.
In addition, the award program launched in July, which recognizes outstanding initiatives in the prevention of lifestyle-related diseases and the promotion of health by organizations, will continue to highlight best practices and promote their broader dissemination, thereby amplifying their impact throughout society.
