In Season 5, we sit down with stakeholders working across numerous sectors and industries, to find a common language to address, measure, and demonstrate the impact that they are making in tackling the 17 Global Goals.







From Berlin to Sydney, from Seoul to Hong Kong, our #impact hosts will bring you stories from all over the globe as you find inspiration on how to make an #impact in your community too.















As Founder of LumiVoce, Dr. Ying Ying Liu cares a great deal about the future of life on this planet. 







Trained as a classical pianist and singer, she traveled the world performing.  After learning about the devastating state of global wildlife loss and nature destruction, she decided to devote her energy and time to inspire and engage with people, especially the young generation, to care, love and protect wildlife and nature through the power of the arts, creativity and education.  















Ying Ying believes just knowing is not enough. She says: “We must get from knowing to caring to action”. In this episode, you will hear all about how she takes action by leveraging the beauty and power of arts.

“I started LumiVoce in 2016 when I learned that we have lost 68% of wildlife in the last 45 years. We are faced with the loss of 1 million species in the next 10 years.  And the ecosystem may collapse.  I decided to do something through the power of arts, through creativity and engage in education”. Dr Ying Ying Liu, Founder of LumiVoce















“If we really truly talk about inclusive, inclusiveness, both social inclusiveness in the human world and biodiversity inclusive, bio inclusiveness, we ought to look after our environment, our fundamentals of ecological health, because without them, we won’t be able to survive.” Dr Ying Ying Liu on #impact Podcast

Ying Ying believes that music and the arts connect with people’s hearts and mind through beauty. She is convinced that only when people start to care, they will protect what they love.  During their annual Voices for the Planet Festival, they work with numerous schools across China to encourage students as well as teachers and parents to rethink the relationship they have with wildlife and the natural world.
