Voices of courage: The resilient women changing the landscape of multicultural health in western Sydney

March 07, 2024 • Western Sydney Local Health District staff

In this powerful episode, we are joined by Dipti Zachariah from Western Sydney Local Health District’s Multicultural Health Services and Nat, a member of her team.

Dipti and Nat provide extensive support to help culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) women and survivors of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) find their voice.

With International Women’s Day and Harmony Day fast approaching, the pair took this opportunity to share their very personal journeys to empowerment, in the hope of providing comfort and inspiration to others in similar situations.

Please note, this episode discusses sensitive issues and listener discretion is advised.
