Across the globe, millions of people have been forced from their homes, with many still waiting to be reunited with loved ones.

In this episode, Host and Churchill Fellow Michelle Ainsworth speaks with Patrick O’Connor, Principal Lawyer and CEO of the Tasmanian Refugee Legal Service, about why and how legal help can change lives for refugee families.

In 2022, Patrick was awarded The Gallaugher Bequest Churchill Fellowship to develop an effective reunification legal framework for refugee families separated by conflict. As a result, he travelled to 11 European countries to study family reunification law, and shares practical ways Australia can do better.

Fellowship Sponsor: The Gallaugher Bequest Churchill Fellowship.

The focus for Season 3 is impact, which comes with a title change from The Churchill Collective to The Churchill Changemakers and a new batch of extraordinary people who received their Churchill Fellowships some years ago, to reveal their impact over time.

Michelle Ainsworth, Churchill Fellow and host of The Churchill Changemakers, talks to 10 bold thinkers, driven to learn more globally and return home to make an impact locally. 

You'll hear stories on topics from 'media literacy for primary school children' to 'tobacco control', and from 'maintaining historical keyboard instruments' to 'public toilet taboos, design and policy'. 

So, what did these changemakers do with those powerful new ideas, and how have they driven impact locally? We invite you to listen to The Churchill Changemakers and find out.
