Voices of the Impact Economy
'Voices of the Impact Economy', is a dialogue series designed by Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, India, Second Nature Sustainable Solutions (SNSS), and broadcast journalist Mugdha Kalra, to simplify the complex themes of impact investing and transformative systems change. The goal is to foster collaboration, co-create solutions, and scale ideas amongst climate conscious and impact aware actors - investors, for-profit and not-for-profit social enterprises, corporates, and civil society organisations.

Episode 22 - Apnalaya - "People Power - An Answer to Urban Poverty"
In this episode of Voices of the Impact Economy, we explore how Mumbai-based NGO Apnalaya empowers urban poor communities by putting people at the center. Through its community-led urban services programme, residents identify gaps, engage with civic agencies, and drive real change, leading to better infrastructure, improved services, and a higher quality of life.
The dialogue series - Voices of the Impact Economy, designed by Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, India, Ashish Mehta of Second Nature Sustainable Solutions (SNSS) and Mugdha Kalra expands on the foundational work done by FES and SNSS on Impact Investment Ecosystem for Transformative Change Making (https://lnkd.in/gZT8GweS) and Payments for Ecosystem Services (https://lnkd.in/gGkAAEeC) as approaches towards addressing social-ecological transformation.
