Globally, Toyota supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and aligns its climate action with a commitment to carbon neutrality by 2050. By providing a fleet of HEVs, the company is demonstrating its pledge to reducing its environmental impact and promoting sustainable transportation solutions.

The APMCDRR is the primary regional platform for promoting coordination and cooperation on disaster risk reduction in the Asia-Pacific region. This biennial conference is organized by the UNDRR in collaboration with the host country. It aims to accelerate progress towards the implementation of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030.
