Core vision
Bioethics as Fundamental Value
To establish Bioethics as our fundamental value, driving a paradigm shift in population economics and fertility research while fostering a social culture that honors the value of life, family, and intergenerational responsibility.

Academic Paradigm Shift: from utility to value
01.
Reflecting on the Past
The Instrumentalized Human
Post-WWII frameworks often viewed populations as “economic competitors” or “cogs in an industrial machine.” This technical approach to controlling population scale has led to a deep alienation of humanistic values.

02.
Diagnosing the Present
Failing Economic Levers
Financial subsidies can reduce “costs,” but they cannot create “will.” Today’s low fertility rate is essentially a civilizational symptom of a collapsing bioethical structure.

03.
Insight into the Future
Returning to the “First Cause”
Fertility decisions are “value-meaning” oriented. The perceived value of “meaning” carries far more weight than immediate financial returns.
