Editorial Notes
During fiscal 2007, the NTT Group established the NTT Group CSR Charter to provide fundamental guidelines to enable better implementation of NTT Group CSR activities. The Corporate Social Responsibility Report has been created to foster communication with all of our stakeholders by reporting the various CSR activities of the NTT Group that were implemented during fiscal 2008 in accordance with the NTT Group CSR Charter.
In addition to content such as the president's message and the basic vision, policies, and systems that guide our CSR activities, the 2009 report includes a special feature on the NTT Group CSR Priority Activities adopted in November 2008.
The main body of the report is divided in four sections according to the CSR goals outlined in the NTT Group CSR Charter, namely: communication between people and their communities, communication between people and the global environment, safe and secure communication, and Team NTT communication. Each section introduces key CSR activities of the NTT Group companies likely to be of interest to all NTT Group stakeholders.
