Participation in Osaka "TEAM EXPO 2025 Co-creation Challenge"
The Imperial Hotel Osaka participated in the TEAM EXPO 2025 Co-Creation Challenge, a participatory program sponsored by the Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition.
We conducted internships for foreign students in collaboration with the Osaka Global Student Support Association (Osaka Convention & Tourism Bureau) and Transcend-Learning, which helps foreign students secure employment.
Our employees increased their awareness of diversity, and the international students deepened their understanding of Japanese hospitality and corporate culture.
This effort contributed to better employment support for international students, thereby embodying the SDGs.
Participated in "La Semaine du Goût (The Week of Taste)"® food education activities
We participated in the "La Semaine du Goût (The Week of Taste)"® food education program that has a track record of more than 30 years in France, and held taste classes on the theme of "Food Education and the SDGs" at local elementary schools in Tokyo and Osaka.
This provided an opportunity for the children to check the five tastes and also to think about where the foods they eat every day come from and whether they are being thrown away wastefully.
