Our Mission

Building
a truly accessible
and inclusive society

Barriers exist within our social environment, and what human hands have created, human hands can change. We eliminate physical and social obstacles today to ensure that future generations can thrive in a world filled with possibilities, not limitations.

Our Vision

A world where
mobility challenges
never limit your potential

Physical and environmental barriers often restrict movement and isolate individuals. We are here to change this reality. Through our community-driven platform, we co-create a world where limited mobility never prevents people from pursuing their dreams and contributing to society.

Meet Our Founder

Yuriko Oda

Founder & Executive Director

Yuriko Oda was diagnosed with a rare neuromuscular disease in her youth and became a wheelchair user. Experiencing firsthand the challenges of limited urban mobility, she founded WheeLog to empower people with disabilities and co-create an accessible world for everyone.

Turning Personal Challenges into Global Change

Living with a disability taught me that the biggest barriers are not physical limits, but a lack of information and understanding. WheeLog connects people, data, and technology to show that mobility challenges should never hold anyone back. Together, we are building a world where everyone can explore freely and live with confidence.

In July 2025, Founder Yuriko Oda presented Japan's accessibility progress at the UN High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) in New York, sharing our vision for an inclusive world with global leaders.
