Today, we have the honour of speaking with Karyn Walsh, the CEO of Micah Projects. Karyn is a trailblazer in the field of social justice, with over 40 years of experience advocating for the most vulnerable members of our society.
As a founding member of Micah Projects, Karyn has dedicated her career to addressing issues such as homelessness, domestic violence, and mental health. Her tireless efforts have not only transformed the lives of countless individuals but have also influenced policy and practice on a national level.
In recognition of her work, Karyn has received numerous accolades, including an honorary Doctor of Social Work and Nursing from the University of Queensland and being named a Member of the Order of Australia.
In today's episode, we'll explore Karyn's journey and the innovative approaches Micah Projects has implemented to create lasting change. We'll also discuss the importance of community collaboration and the role each of us can play in building a more just and inclusive society.
