The 27th Symposium of the Institute for Health Economics and Policy

Naoki Kondo has been involved in the creation of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government’s Health Promotion Plan and its evaluation as an academician for the past several years.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government is emphasizing the development of a social environment that fosters connections in the community as an intervention for health promotion. This could be a good hint for current measures against lonely and isolation.

As examples of social environment improvement, activities at public bathhouses and driving schools are also introduced.
