LIXIL x SDGs NEXT STAGE
LIXIL has been implementing LIXIL x SDGs NEXT STAGE activities to accelerate action on achieving SDGs together with various stakeholders in Japan, including customers, business partners, and younger generations who will become the leaders of the future.
Having appointed former member of the Japan national football team Atsuto Uchida as the LIXIL SDGs ambassador under this initiative, we disseminate information and hold events and campaigns related to the SDGs and LIXIL’s own initiatives. We also convey wider-ranging information through awareness-raising videos and images on YouTube and Instagram.
