We recently sent a survey on HGPI’s current activities and future plans through HGPI’s mail magazine. 

Approximately 500 people completed the survey.　

We would like to thank you for your time and cooperation. 

Most respondents answered positively with phrases including, “I hope that HGPI continues as a non-partisan private, non-profit, independent health policy think tank;” “I hope that HGPI continues to share information globally;” and “Policy recommendations should be more effective”. Other respondents shared requests including, “More programs outside of Tokyo” and “I hope programs can be held in local areas.”

This type of feedback is essential for the future of health policy and HGPI, we would like to pursue programs in response to this feedback.

Respondents who were not able to attend our breakfast meetings cited time and location as the reasons for not being able to attend. We also received several comments on event themes and speakers.

In response to this feedback, we are looking into other locations and times for future breakfast meetings. We also will integrate respondent feedback as we consider themes and guests for future breakfast meetings.  

According to survey results, respondents most frequently use Facebook and Twitter. We are glad to announce that HGPI has launched an official Facebook page and Twitter account.

As well as we begin to build contents, we look forward to your feedback.
