| Project overview | To advance impact investment in the challenges of the caregiving field, a tool was needed to understand the issues comprehensively and structurally. With the cooperation of experts in the caregiving field, we held workshops to extract and organize the issues, and created a map that visualizes the issues by connecting them through cause-and-effect relationships |

About This Project
ZUKAI cooperated in creating the "Caregiving Issue Design Map," which visualizes the structure of the issues surrounding caregiving.

This map is designed to be modifiable and is a participatory map, allowing various people to view it and offer opinions such as "isn't there this issue too?" or "couldn't this perspective be added?" Since it is still a newborn map and there are probably many perspectives it lacks, by publishing it this way we want to make it a map that grows by involving a diverse range of people.
We also hope that by visualizing the issues and making them open in this way, the foundation for discussion toward solving the issues will be even a little more in place, and that it will be used as a communication tool.
There is a simple survey form for the Caregiving Issue Design Map, so if you've viewed the map, please do respond!

Having been involved in creating the Caregiving Issue Design Map and trying out this visualization, I came to earnestly feel that this is something every industry needs.
If there is a need to visualize a different industry or social structure as a "◯◯ Issue Design Map," please consult ZUKAI!

The Caregiving Issue Design Map was born with the report's publisher, the healthcare-focused venture capital "Capital Medica Ventures Co., Ltd.," and the producer of the impact report, the "Japan Social Innovation and Investment Foundation," as its founders. ZUKAI was in charge of the planning of how to shape the map, facilitation of the workshops, and how to gather the opinions and issues raised and actually turn them into a diagram.
