It is a growing concern and social problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In light of this, Sompo Japan has launched a unique program called the Bousai JAPAN-DA Project. Sompo Japan operates the domestic property and casualty insurance business of the the Sompo Group and it is fitting that the company lead such an initiative. Bousai JAPAN-DA Project has activities like immersive workshops for disaster prevention and pupper shows that teach disaster preparedness to very young children. Leveraging our partnership, the Sompo Group and WE LEAGUE are promoting the importance of disaster preparedness through WE ACTION.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/stories.sompo-hd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ACNaganoParceiro1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3370\" style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stories.sompo-hd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ACNaganoParceiro1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/stories.sompo-hd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ACNaganoParceiro1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/stories.sompo-hd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ACNaganoParceiro1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/stories.sompo-hd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ACNaganoParceiro1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/stories.sompo-hd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ACNaganoParceiro1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Joint effort with the clubs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>WE LEAGUE strives to promote an inclusive society, filled with diverse dreams and ways of living, and where individuals can shine, through the power of women\u2019s football and sports.
