English Press Release: Strategic Roadmap for Gender Equality
March 12, 2026 Fuji Television Network, Inc.
In October 2025, Fuji Television Network, Inc. endorsed the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs), becoming a signatory to underscore its commitment to promoting gender equality and diversity. To actively implement the “WEPs Journey,” Fuji TV conducted a rigorous, six-month company-wide “Gender Capacity Building Program,” which culminated in the development of a strategic implementation roadmap. Fuji TV reported its progress to the WEPs Secretariat in New York.
The program was conducted cross-functionally, led by both the Human Rights and Human Capital Management project teams under the Sustainability Management Committee, with supervision from External Advisor Asako Osaki.
Through six participatory sessions—incorporating lectures, stakeholder engagements with civil society organizations, and interdivisional workshops—the program identified key challenges and insights for the future. These findings have been integrated into a comprehensive “Roadmap for 2035,” which focuses on three strategic pillars: Systems, Organizational Culture, and Media Content.
Fuji TV endorses the roadmap and will proceed with concrete company-wide actions and the establishment of structures needed to advance them. Furthermore, it will continue to position the promotion of gender equality and respect for diversity as a core management priority. Fuji TV is fully committed to providing media content that meets societal expectations and striving to create a workplace where everyone can work with confidence.
