Risk and Dare
from Creating Space Project Hosted by Ruth Nelson
Christiane Nakhle and I are at Risk and Dare, a justice conference for young people from across Australia. She talks about homelessness, and young people being vehicles for justice. Women are the most significant proportion of homeless people in Australia, due to domestic violence and lack of support. Christiane traces her concern for homeless women to the influence of her cultural background, Christiane is Lebanese-Australia, the closeness she feels to her family, and the influence of her mother and grandmother on her life. Christiane strongly values empathy and using the resources she has to be an instrument for change. It was an interview grabbed spontaneously as Christiane was very busy, and kindly took time away from workshops to speak to me. So my apologies for the difficulties with the noise. We are in sonic competition with the loudspeaker for most of the time.
