Shufuren (English name) Japan Housewives Association
Founded in 1948 as a pioneering consumer group. Its slogan is to reflect the real voices of consumers in politics. Its demonstrations under the banner of a rice scoop were synonymous with the consumer movement. It also has its own "Daily Goods Testing Laboratory" and places emphasis on backing up its activities with scientific data. It covers a wide range of topics, including food safety, environmental pollution, commodity prices, and information disclosure. There are 145 affiliated groups (as of August 2006).

1948年、消費者団体の草分け的な存在として設立。消費生活者の生の声を、政治に反映させることがスローガン。しゃもじを旗印にしたデモは、消費者運動の代名詞だった。独自の「日用品試験室」も備え、科学的データの裏付けを重視する活動を行っている。食品の安全性、環境汚染、物価、情報公開など、幅広く運動テーマを掲げている。加盟団体数は145(2006年8月現在)。
