Hello and welcome to another episode of the Meaning of Health. In this episode we speak with the head of the School of Population and Global Health at UWA, Professor Colleen Fisher. We have an interesting conversation with Colleen about her career in research, focusing mostly on family and domestic violence. We discuss the work that Colleen has done with migrant communities in particular, and how this work can be both challenging and rewarding. We also touch on the impact that the current COVID19 pandemic is having on family and domestic violence, and how this might be addressed. Our conversation with Colleen highlighted many of the challenges people in our communities face every day and was very enlightening, and we hope you find it interesting.
