Background and Purpose

In Japan, the rapidly aging population is resulting in an increasing number of elderly individuals without family connections. By 2050, it is estimated that more than 10 million elderly individuals will have no children, with about 4 million of them lacking close family ties. Such circumstances often lead to challenges in securing personal guarantors required for medical or nursing care, leaving many elderly individuals unable to access necessary services.

Akari Hoshou believes that addressing issues of solitude and possible deaths among individuals living alone is more effective when collaborating with various service providers, rather than tackling these challenges in isolation. Thus, Akari Hoshou established 'Shuu-Sapo' as a platform for related service providers to connect, learn from one another, and collaborate. This community aims to facilitate the exchange of practical knowledge and the development of a support system for the elderly living alone.
