  1. The #koto is a traditional #MusicalInstrument embedded in #Japanese culture, with a long history of #healing — an energy Takako Haggarty is harnessing for good.

    The #musician teaches #children with #VisionImpairments and #disabilities how to play the instrument, helping students gain #MobilitySkills and improve #EmotionalRegulation.

    She has volunteered at a #Brisbane special school, and aims to create a warm and welcoming space through the ancient sound.

    We could emulate what the #WWF initiated with #EarthHour or #HoraDelPlaneta in 2007.* People jointly turn off the lights.

    When many people(s) join in a visible action, it can become a beacon of hope.
