Our Vision

"Make Minato City the healthiest and happiest city in the world"

We are Minato Ward Wellness Promotion Institute, an NPO that is a registered organization of health promotion supporters in Minato Ward, Tokyo.

As the word "wellness" suggests, our mission is to encourage everyone in Minato City to lead a proactive lifestyle that pursues physical and mental health and happiness.

"Health First" - The standard for all activities is the health of the residents.

Do you know the "3.5% rule"? This is a law advocated by Erica Chenoweth, a political scientist at Harvard University, which states that if you can mobilize 3.5% of the population, you can change society.

The population of Minato Ward is approximately 260,000. Our goal is to encourage approximately 10,000 people, or 3.5%, to engage in a form of wellness that suits them, no matter how small, and to create a movement that will transform Minato City into the best city in the world.
