AS SEEN ON
Your lecture was very well received by both University staff and community members in attendance and formed part of the University’s popular community engagement program and public lecture series.
I want to thank you so much for your address to our 61 delegates from 23 countries at our recently completed Summit. Your life stories of discrimination and how you overcame those obstacles since coming to Australia were powerful and inspiring. You’ve been there, so they could relate to you. Your friendly, open and inviting presence was proof that the actions you suggested to them have made a difference in your life.
