    Intelligent Vehicle Food System Micro Plastics Climate Adaptation Water Issues Biodiversity Circuler Economy Blockchain Beyond Capitalism Universal Human Rights Sustainable Finance Your Challenges Corporate Human Rights Privacy Protection Climate Mitigation 世界の教育 CE Rule Trend Themes Automatically collected by RuleWatcher 世界の教育 World Education New technologies are emerging, and our learning is changing dramatically. While these advances are taking place, there are still people who are unable to receive an education, and because of this, disparities are widening and discrimination in education is becoming more serious. ​ Learning is a great joy for human beings and a right open to all, and RuleWatcher will provide hints on what learning is, targeting not only children to students, but also "global education" for all. Community Pro Enterprise Intelligent Vehicle Enterprise All over the world, automated driving technology is being developed. This extends not only to land, but also to the oceans and the skies. Advances in automated driving technology will lead to smarter logistics and new industries, such as car sharing, will be born one after another. For such technologies to be implemented in society, rules are necessary, and RuleWatcher allows users to see the rule trends for "vehicles that move based on artificial intelligence. The "Intelligent Vehicle" rule trend is not only a vehicle issue. It is also connected to the larger theme of how we humans and machines will need to coexist in the future. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 1st of October, 2022) Intelligent Vehicle Food System For Citizen Pro Enterprise Our food system has been globalized than ever before. ​ This is not only for the food we eat directly, but also for the feed for livestock and chemical fertilizers used in agriculture, which are no longer solely produced in our own countries. ​ The recent large-scale agriculture, livestock, and fishing industries are extremely unbalanced. While producing enough to feed the earth's population of nearly 8 billion people, they actually result in massive waste and starvation on the other hand. ​ Behind the food system, labor rights violations, deforestation, land degradation, water depletion and pollution pose an imminent danger to us all. ​ The food system is both the source of and the solution to the problem, for climate crisis and biodiversity. Now is the time to change the way we have been doing and seeing things, and we invite you to find the way forward from RuleWatcher. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 5th of June, 2022) Food System Micro Plastics For Citizen Pro Enterprise In recent years, the plastic waste problem has been gaining attention. Every year, plastics as the same amount as 50,000 airplanes flow out into the ocean, and it is estimated that 150 million tons of plastic are accumulated in the world's ocean. In this trend, alternative materials are also appearing, while they are not yet the radical solutions. For example, most plant-derived plastics use edible parts such as corn, and biodegradable plastics are not decomposed as easily as you imagine because they require severe decomposition conditions such as temperature. Plastics have a number of benefits, such as to keep gloceries edible for longer time, to be a support for hygiene in medical fields, and to reduce transportation energy with their light weight. What is the optimal solution to the circulated structure that creates a new problem when one issue is solved? We need to gather wisdom intersectionally to overcome the situation. ​ Let us use RuleWatcher to find hints together. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Micro Plastics Climate Mitigation For Citizen Pro Enterprise There have been finally certain amount of attention from the world on this issue. Many countries made policies, but the actual reduction is far on the way. While new technologies such as hydrogen energy and CCUS appeared, there is little time left until 2030, which is said to be the turning point of climate change. Let us explore what we can do with RuleWatcher to prevent the unsustainable future predicted by the frequent natural disasters of recent years, from becoming a reality. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Climate Mitigation Climate Adaptation Climate Adaptation Pro Enterprise The effects of climate change are becoming more serious in every corner of the world. Today, we are facing wild fluctuations in temperature, floods, droughts, crop shortages, changes in the distribution areas of plants and animals, and increased health hazards. ​ Apart from measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (climate mitigation), the prevention and reduction of damage caused by climate change is called "climate adaptation," and is an important part of countermeasures for climate change. ​ ​ The fields affected by climate change, such as agriculture, forestry, fisheries, civil engineering, and medical care, are extremely diverse, and it is becoming more and more important for the various parties and experts involved to work together and collaborate beyond expertises. ​ RuleWatcher provides information on the topic from various countries so that a wide range of specialists can come together to come up with effective measures for tackling climate adaptation. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Water Issues For Citizen Pro Enterprise Water is indispensable for our lives. Since water itself circulates on the earth, it will not disappear, but fresh water is rapidly decreasing. One of the reasons is agriculture, which supports human population of 7 billion. Large-scale irrigated agriculture that draws groundwater is carried out all over the world and the crops are exported to other countries due to the recent globalization of food consumption. There are 263 cross-border rivers called "international rivers" in the world, and it is said that 40% of the world's population lives in that basin. If a dam is built upstream, the amount of water will decrease. Pollution threatens the health of the lower reaches. The risk of conflict over these key international rivers is rapidly increasing. RuleWatcher is always on the lookout on water issue, our common property. . Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Water Issues Biodiversity Pro Enterprise It is estimated that between 1992 and 2014, the global stock of natural capital per capita fell by nearly 40% and the extinction rate of living things is the highest in the whole history of living things, which is still continuing to increase. In parallel, there is an incremental number of livestock. In fact, when looking at mammals on the ground by weight, there is a surprising calculation that 96% is livestock, while only 4% left for the rest of the mammals. ​ How can we correct the imbalance between human demand and natural supply? How should we protect the existing nature and regenerate the nature that has already been damaged? ​ ​ RuleWatcher will provide relevant information and place for discussion so that this unsustainable relationship with nature will not be passed on to future generations. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Biodiversity Circuler Economy Circular Economy Pro Enterprise How to make the world sustainable. One of the answers is the circular economy. For 250 years since the Industrial Revolution, we have collected, processed, used and disposed of resources. It is said that breaking out of the current linear economy is the cornerstone of SDGs. There is a need for an overall design that does not generate any waste or pollution, rather than such singular concept as "recycling" or "3Rs". Relying on renewable energy, minimizing the use of harmful substances and repairing the products again and again. For that, it is necessary to secure an acquisition route for recycled materials, a tracking system for materials and parts, and product specifications that may be disassembled. We live in an era that conventional wisdom becomes insane. It is a risk, but also a huge business opportunity. Please take advantage of the trends of the global circular economy delivered by RuleWatcher for both your job and personal life. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Blockchain Blockchain Enterprise Blockchain is said to be the most revolutionary technology since the Internet. A simple explanation of blockchain is that it is a system for managing a ledger of transactions that is synchronized across many computers. It has a structure that when a single change is added to its "block"(information), a ledger will be "chained". There are many things that can be achieved when it becomes clear to whom a certain value currently belongs and what the transaction history was in the past. For example, it will be possible to record the details of the supply chain, such as where and how the materials for a product were made, processed, transported, and disposed of. It will also allow rights holders to be properly compensated for things that can be easily reproduced, such as digital content. The world of finance is said to have the greatest affinity with such digital technology and the bitcoin already gained a status. You have probably heard that El Salvador became the first country in the world to declare bitcoin a "legal tender. However, the blockchain technology, which the evolution is so speedy, still has its challenges such as optimal usage, environmental impact as seen in the massive power consumption, and above all, governance. Blockchain has the potential to change the way we live. Let us find out how the rules will be formed with RuleWatcher . Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Beyond Capitalism Beyond Capitalism For Citizen Pro Enterprise It has been said that the system based on capitalism has a limitation, considering the fact that the economic gaps between countries and individuals become larger and larger. Worldwide, not only short-term solutions such as the basic income and the counter-action for tax heaven, but also radical change of the whole discourse and destination of the capital itself are being discussed - how should we reset the goals which take GDP as granted. How should we deal with money that dominates our society? How should we sustain public resources such as water, air, open sea and universe that do not belong to anyone? How should we accelerate mutual assistance, besides public assistance? We catch up with those ranges of issues in Beyond Capitalism. ​ Basic Income was renewed to be Beyond Capitalism in order to collect more range of information, from 10th of August, 2021. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Corporate Human Rights Corporate Human Rights Pro Enterprise In the UK, amendments are being sought to strengthen the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (as of March 2022). Slave labor is not a historical event; it still continues in mines, farms, and aquaculture. Many people may be surprised to hear that the number of slaves is the largest today in history. ​ Human rights issues in the rapidly globalizing supply chain are becoming more serious. Needless to say, if companies do not pay attention to human rights, they will not be able to avoid being condemned by the international community. The International Labour Organization (ILO) calls decent work "productive work that protects rights, generates sufficient income, and provides adequate social protection" and considers it an important concept. ​ Let RuleWatcher provide you with the latest information on corporate human rights issues so that this simple definition can be applied to all people's work. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Universal Human Rights Universal Human Rights For Citizen Pro Enterprise "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood." (Article 1 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights) It was in 1948 that this declaration was adopted. Coincidentally, this was exactly 100 years after the 1848 revolution that swept across Europe. Twenty-eight years later, in 1976, "the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights" finally came into force as a multilateral treaty based on the Declaration. ​ Through this long process, international cooperation on human rights has gradually been achieved. However, the continuous violation of human rights around the world is a sad reality that confirms the weakness of the effectiveness of the treaty. In RuleWatcher , we follow the progress of human rights around the world, which is a long-cherished dream of humanity but still has a long way to go, and support citizens who aim to create a society where all people can live as a matter of course. ​ Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Sustainable Finance Sustainable Finance Enterprise Sustainable finance represented for instance by ESG investment is catching more and more attention. It became widely known that investment in companies that are more conscious of social responsibility has stable results even during the financial crisis and recession, and the amount of investment is growing rapidly even in the Corona pandemic. ​ Meanwhile, there are problems that we have to deal with so called green wash and SDGs wash, and that the companies must understand the newly emerging standards published by random institutions. Gradually, though, those indicators come into one and now rapidly be on the way to the global standardization. ​ RuleWatcher Enterprise provides you such vital information on disclosures of sustainable finance mainly on ESG investment. Portion of tags we have in RuleWatcher (As of 22nd of February, 2022) Privacy Protection Privacy protection Enterprise It is important that your privacy is protected. On the other hand, many people have witnessed that the protection of personal information is not prioritized for public welfare such as public health. Even in "smart cities" that are being promoted around the world, personal information is scheduled to be used for various services on a data linkage platform in order to realize an optimized society. In the United States and other countries, solutions that use facial recognition data to prevent crimes are attracting attention. Society, well-being and privacy. In the age of big data, how much of the sharing of personal information should we allow that we should have at our hands? And how should organizations that handle personal information capture regulatory trends in this area of ​​extreme delicacy and rapid technological innovation? Following the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Asian countries are also updating their laws for personal information protection. Discussions have begun on the federal-wide adoption of the "Biological Information Privacy Act," which is in force in some states of the United States. RuleWatcher Enterprise also emphasizes this area, which will become more important in the future, and strives to visualize the legalizing process in the world. Your Challenges Your Challenges Enterprise RuleWatcher Enterprise also allows you to follow rule trends for specific issue areas that meet your needs. Please feel free to contact us.

  • B Corp | OSINTech

    OSINTech has received B Corp certification. OSINTech Wins UN "The World Summit Award" in the Environment and Green Energy Category for the First Time in Japan 【Award】Our platform RuleWatcher has received the World Summit Award 2023 【Nominated!】RuleWatcher is nominated to UN-agenda-based World Summit Awards!! B Corp stands for "B Corporation." It is a certification system that is given only to clean companies. ​ B Corp certification is administered by B Lab, a non-profit network established in 2006 and headquartered in the United States. ​ B Lab has established the following unique corporate evaluation criteria based on its belief that "what is lacking in the current global economic system is a transition to a sustainable corporate structure". ​ - Are you contributing to the world by engaging in "social and environmental activities"? - Are you committed to "accountability" to your business stakeholders? - Are you maintaining a high level of transparency by disclosing its organizational operations both internally and externally? ​ Nowadays, corporate valuations that differ from the traditional shareholder-centric approach, such as stakeholder-centric and sustainable finance, have emerged, but as of 2006, they were extremely rare. ​ B Lab's values are consistent with OSINTech's philosophy of pursuing the well-being of all stakeholders, with an emphasis on the environment and society. ​ The purpose of B Lab's certification of companies that meet high standards in terms of "social and environmental activities," "accountability," and "transparency" is not just an evaluation, but also a movement to promote clean corporate activities worldwide through the creation of a community of certified companies. ​ As of March 2022, there are approximately 4,500 "B Corporation" certified companies worldwide. ​ OSINTech is the 10th company to receive B Corp certification in Japan. (as of March 24, 2022, the number of certified companies is publicly available). As a member of the B Corporation, we will continue to participate in the community of certified companies and aim to further solve global environmental and social issues. ​ ​ View B corporations B corp? ​Why B Corp? This is because the philosophy of B Lab and OSINTech have many things in common. OSINTech is a global technology company that is dedicated to solving global issues. We believe it is essential for many people to focus on rules. With today's technology, "Data from governments and international organizations around the world" is now available for everybody. Instead of making and enforcing rules only by someone who has a strong and powerful voice, we can now have access to data from governments and international organizations around the world. Each of us can step forward more as a leading role in making the rules. We are trying to create such an era. This is in line with B Lab's efforts to recognize companies that are not only doing what their powerful shareholders want, but also what is good for the broader society and the environment, and to build a movement to create a new society of shining companies. We’re building the B Corp movement to change our economic system — and to do so, we must change the rules of the game. (Source: B Lab ) ​How to be B corp? For those who are considering B Corp certification, we would like to mention the assessment we received. In order to obtain B Corp certification, the B Lab requires an "B impact assessment," which consists of nearly 200 questions. This is like a test to see how clean a company is, but in the process of answering the questions, you will gain a lot of insight into how the company should conduct its business and how it should disclose information to the public. The passing score is 80 out of 200 points and consists of the following six items Governance: Corporate philosophy and form Community:Supply chain management and contributions to local communities Workers:Employee satisfaction and internal working environment Environment:Degree of environmental impact of company activities Customer:Relationship with customers Disclosure Questionnaire:Openness for internal or external ​ Here, it is not enough for one item to be outstanding; all six items must fully meet the criteria established by the B Lab. ​ These interactions with B Lab provided the best opportunity to consider the balance of being a more sustainable organization. ​ While B Corp certification continues to grow, especially in Europe and the United States, the number of certified companies in Japan is still very small. ​ OSINTech hopes to expand the "B corporation" community and make friends who are committed to a better world.

The international community is coming up with new rules one after another, as the issue such as climate change and the issue of plastics cannot be put off. Such "rules" are emphasized as something that binds us, but they are also inventions that are necessary for us to face major problems. This is because subsidies and investments can be given to technologies and activities that are good for the environment and society, and "regulations" can be imposed on activities that have a negative impact. Now that the group of problems has become a global scale, the rules are also crossing borders. "Climate change", "Plastic pollution", "Water shortage", "Human rights", "AI ethics"-issues are happening everywhere in the world. Make use of the trend of rules in business activities, advocacy, research, and policy making. OSINTech provides RuleWatcher with the hope that many people will be interested in rulemaking itself.
