Takeda (TSE:4502/NYSE:TAK) today committed JPY 4.6 billion (approx. USD 32.1 million) to four new Global Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) partners as part of the company’s ongoing commitment to building climate-resilient health systems in low- and middle-income countries around the world. Amid rising temperatures and extreme weather events, Takeda recognizes an urgent need to ensure that healthcare remains resilient and accessible, particularly in regions most susceptible to the impacts of climate change. Climate action is critically underfunded, receiving less than 2% of philanthropic funding.*1 Through its FY2025 collaborations, Takeda is deepening its focus on supporting the world’s most vulnerable communities, addressing the greatest threats to health systems worldwide. This renewed focus reflects Takeda’s mission to continue to improve health outcomes and enhance the climate resilience of health systems as the global aid landscape keeps evolving.
Since its launch in 2016, Takeda’s Global CSR Program has reached more than 21.1 million direct beneficiaries across 93 countries. This includes improving healthcare service delivery for 15.3 million people, empowering 5.5 million community members through health education, and providing capacity-building support to over 129,000 health workforce members, while enhancing support across the key building blocks of health system strengthening.
By 2030, the four new collaborations are anticipated to extend Takeda’s impact to 53.7 million people across 94 countries, raising the total contributions from Takeda’s Global CSR Program to over JPY 33.4 billion (approx. USD 238.7 million) across 38 significant collaborations. These new partners were selected by more than 20,000 Takeda employees across 80 countries and regions through a company-wide vote, highlighting the company’s commitment to a collaborative and inclusive approach to its global corporate giving initiative.
