Towards a Society Where the Day of Divorce Becomes the Happiest Day for a Fresh Start: wakai Unveils Future Vision for 'Divorce Where No One Cries'

We are participating in April Dream, an initiative to share dreams on April 1st. This press release is the dream of "Wakai Inc.".

Wakai Inc. (URL: https://ddrwakai.co.jp / Tokyo, Minato Ward: CEO, Remon Matoba), which aims to make legal services easily accessible through smartphone mediation, announces the future project "Happy Restart Concept (Dream Project)", which aims to fundamentally change the concept of divorce.

However, this is a "dream" that we sincerely aim to achieve and believe society should realize.

• Project Background: Ending a Society Where Someone is Sacrificed in Divorce

In Japan today, divorce often leads to:

・Children becoming mentally and economically unstable

・Cases of unpaid child support are endless

・Agreements made under unfavorable terms due to lack of legal knowledge

・Women, in particular, tend to fall into economic hardship

This is the reality.

On the other hand, men are also often bound by the image of "divorce = failure" or "social defeat," making it difficult to look forward to a new life.

• Wakai's "Dream": A World Where Everyone Becomes "Happier Than Before" After Divorce

Wakai aims for a society where people can move forward without making compromises due to divorce.

★ Dream 1: A Society with Zero Unpaid Child Support

Establish a system where all child support is reliably paid.
Through the integration of technology and systems,

· Automatic payment system

· Immediate detection of non-payment

· Support from society as a whole

We will realize a society where children's futures are not shaken by economic reasons.

★ Dream 2: Increase Women's "Post-Divorce Income"

Instead of facing financial hardship after divorce, achieve a state where income and options expand as a fresh start in life.

· Reskilling support

· Creation of employment opportunities

· Digital skills education

· Community building

We will shift the value from "divorce = anxiety" to "divorce = growth."

★ Dream 3: "Happy Divorce" for Men Too

Wakai aims for a society where divorce becomes:

· Redesigning one's life

· New ways of engaging as a parent

· Rebuilding a life true to oneself

We will establish divorce as "a choice for new happiness" in society, changing the fixed notion of "divorce = negative."

★ Dream 4: Divorce Where Children Are Most Protected

Regardless of the circumstances, the child's happiness is the top priority.

· Psychological care

· Maintenance of educational opportunities

· Healthy relationship with both parents

We will support this with society as a whole, realizing an environment where "even if we divorce, I'm glad we were this family."

★ Dream 5: Infrastructure to "Protect Your Life with Just a Smartphone"

Evolving Wakai's strength in smartphone mediation,

· Anyone

· Anywhere

· Fairly

We will create an environment for discussion, realizing "a society where no one has to suffer in silence" through technology.

• Comment from Remon Matoba, CEO of Wakai Inc.

• Finally

The matters introduced in this release are still in their early stages at this point.

However, we believe it is a future that must be realized.

We are issuing this not as a "Wouldn't it be nice if such a society existed?" but as a declaration to "create such a society."
