Osaka, Japan, October 18, 2018 --- Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, (“Takeda”) (TSE:4502) today announced the publication of its 2018 Sustainable Value Report, which details the company's programs dedicated to sustainable value creation, and their achievements to date.
The report showcases results achieved through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities, such as Takeda’s Access to Medicines (AtM) Strategy for patients with the highest unmet medical needs, and the Global CSR Program, which prioritizes long-term commitments to disease prevention, capacity-building, and access to healthcare in developing and emerging countries. By working together with the global community, Takeda's CSR activities closely align with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and global standards set by international frameworks, such as the United Nations Global Compact.
