ESG

Social Engagement

Oneness Biotech actively fulfills the duties of corporate citizens. In addition to pursuing corporate development and enhancing profits for shareholders, partners, and employees, the Company also considers the community as one of our key stakeholders. Through the core business of the pharmaceutical industry, the Company continues to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Particularly, the Company is committed to SDG 3, which aims to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. The Company sees itself responsible to promote the health and well-being of global humanity. Therefore, we focus our social participation efforts on issues related to "Healthcare". The Company collaborates with external educational institutions, associations, NGOs, and community groups to allocate resources to care for disadvantaged communities. This reflects Oneness' commitment to the corporate social responsibility principle of "taking from society and giving back to society", ultimately fostering social prosperity.


Strengthening Community Health Care

Strengthening community health care is critical to overall public health, and by enhancing individual and civic capacities, better health outcomes can be promoted. Pharmaceutical companies play a vital role in this trend, especially in providing innovative medical solutions and drug therapies. Additionally, biopharmaceutical companies may also engage in health promotion and educational activities to increase community residents’ awareness of health and disease treatment.

 

Social Welfare Video for Public Health Education

Through cooperating with Taiwan Society for Burn Injuries and Wound Healing, Taiwan Society for Wound Care, and Taiwan Society of Plastic Surgery, Oneness Biotech produces the social welfare videos for public health education: “What is Diabetic Foot Ulcer”, “Spreading Care and Love for Feet”, and “Diabetic Foot Ulcer Management.” These videos are aimed to draw more attention from the public and patients to diabetic foot ulcers, and to encourage them to check their feet frequently and receive medical aid timely if ulcer occurs. We intend to expand the influence in the society, increase the health knowledge of patients, and protect the patients’ right to access medicine.

Participation in External Associations

The research and development of new drugs is a highly regulated and supervised industry characterized by dramatic changes and uncertainties. In addition to its business operations, Oneness Biotech actively participates in external associations in order to gain better understanding of the latest industry trends, legal developments, and positive interactions with competitors in the same industry.

World Diabetes Day Initiative

Diabetes is one of the top ten causes of death among people in Taiwan. In recent years, the number of cases has continued to rise, with a trend toward affecting younger people. According to statistics from the Health Promotion Administration, there are now over 2 million people nationwide living with diabetes—meaning that, on average, one in every ten people may be diabetic. Diabetes is a systemic disease, and poor blood sugar control can affect both large and small blood vessels, leading to complications such as cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, kidney disease, and foot disease. This has a significant impact on public health and creates a substantial burden on healthcare resources. Therefore, in caring for people with diabetes, it is crucial to focus on preventive health measures and medical prevention, shifting from a purely medical approach to one that includes community-based care.

 

Every year around World Diabetes Day on November 14, the Diabetes Association of the Republic of China and Taiwanese Association of Diabetes Educators (TADE) alternate in organizing various activities to promote diabetes-related knowledge. This year, "2024 United Nations World Diabetes Day Carnival and Lighting Ceremony" took place on November 9th at the Tainan Chimei MuseumNote, with nearly 50 booths and an attendance of 800-1000 people. Oneness Biotech responded to World Diabetes Day activities, echoing this year’s theme “Access to Diabetes Care,” by donating NT$100,000 and mobilizing over 10 employees as volunteers. During the event, through health education and interactive Q&A games, we provided healthcare professionals and diabetic patients with more diabetes foot ulcer care information, and helped the general public better understand how to properly support people with diabetes in their daily lives.

 

Oneness Biotech has long been dedicated to developing innovative medications, with a strong focus on diabetes. In addressing the diabetic complication of “diabetic foot ulcer,” we are dedicated to advancing pharmaceutical research to bring forward new treatment options.

 

Note: Recognizing diabetes as a significant health risk for the public, the Company’s social engagement activities are not limited to our operational locations (Taipei City and Pingtung County). Each year, we participate in World Diabetes Day events organized by the hosting organizations, aiming to maximize the reach and effectiveness of health education and awareness initiatives.

 

 

Interaction with Communities

Cotton Field Organic Farm organizes community activities to give local residents the opportunity to learn about local agricultural specialties. Children can closely observe plants and learn through interesting activities. The food and farming concept is deeply rooted in their minds.

On April 11, 2023, we invited local kindergarten children to visit and learn the concept of “food and agriculture education”. We led the children into the cherry tomato field, where they can observe the picking and harvesting of the fruits firsthand. The children engaged their senses to experience nature, while learning about the methods of cherry tomato cultivation through explanations from the farm staff. They gained insights into how farmers carefully nurture the plants, fostering a deeper understanding of where the cherry tomatoes they eat come from. The organic farm uses natural bee pollination methods, enhancing the children’s curiosity and interest in nature, as well as fostering a sense of care for the land among the children. Finally, the children had the opportunity to handpick small cherry tomatoes, akin to precious rubies, allowing them to enjoy locally grown, lowcarbon cherry tomatoes!

On June 6,2023, we invited local university students for a visit. Through explanations from farm staff, the cultivation methods of organic okra and organic pumpkins were elucidated. This allowed undergraduate students to gain a clearer understanding of organic concepts, and through onsite plant observation, they developed a deeper understanding of organic cultivation.
