Shownotes Transcript

This episode, the first of our second series, I had the great pleasure of talking with Craig Foster, one of Australia's most respected sportspeople and human rights activists - 

Since his Socceroo days, Craig has had an illustrious career as a sports broadcaster, alongside his unwavering human rights advocacy, primarily around multiculturalism, particularly in support of refugees and those seeking asylum in our country -

Last year Craig was elected the chairperson of the Australian Republic Movement (ARM) and whilst he is a passionate campaigner for this cause, he is committed to Australia first having an Indigenous Voice to Parliament that is enshrined in our constitution -

In 2021, Craig was appointed a member of the Order of Australia and is the current NSW Australian of the Year -

Sit back for a deeply inspirational talk with the irrepressible Craig Foster on why standing up for human rights is vital to the wellbeing of each other, our nation and our global community -
