Engaging the Indifferent in Health Promotion: A Unique Approach
On October 7, 2025, during the seminar titled "[Health Promotion] Small Efforts to Motivate People! Approaches for Changing Attitudes of the Indifferent", Yousuke Toyama, the CEO of Besspra, will be a keynote speaker. This seminar is hosted by Jichitai Works and aims to discuss effective strategies to promote health and well-being in communities, particularly focusing on the so-called 'indifferent demographic'.
The Seminar's Focus
One of the biggest challenges in improving public health is addressing those who are indifferent to health initiatives. The seminar promotes the idea that small, thoughtful initiatives can significantly influence behavior change. Toyama plans to share several case studies that demonstrate how leveraging psychology, nudging techniques, and digital tools can effectively engage this group.
