Description
In today’s rapidly changing world, where economic uncertainty and societal divides are deepening, the conversation around social mobility has become essential. Social mobility is not just about economic advancement—it’s about breaking down systemic barriers that prevent individuals from accessing opportunities based on their background. Across Asia, disparities in education, workplace access, and social capital continue to limit upward movement for many, particularly those from low-income, ethnic minority, or LGBTQ+ communities.
Community Business’s campaign, "Social Mobility in Asia: Advocacy, Collaboration and Action," seeks to address these inequities by fostering understanding and driving action. Through research, advocacy, and collaboration with organisations across the region, we aim to create tangible pathways for progress and empower individuals to thrive in inclusive workplaces.
About the Event
At this virtual event, we will launch our Social Mobility in Asia - Japan Deep Dive, unveiling the findings and exploring the market specific nuances and recommendations.
The Japan Deep Dive provides key insights into these structural and cultural forces — from the role of academic background and parental networks to the impact of gender norms, seniority systems, and inclusion practices in the workplace. The findings underscore the need for organisations to adapt strategies to local realities and to develop targeted, inclusive approaches that expand access to opportunity.
Through this event, Community Business aims to equip leaders with market-specific insights and practical guidance to drive meaningful, localised action — fostering workplaces that are equitable, resilient, and inclusive.
