In celebration of International Women's Day, SBS Assyrian produced this two-part podcast, focusing on the resilience and persistence of an Assyrian woman in Australia.


The second and final episode of our story about Dr Mariam Joseph is about the experience of her new life in Australia and the hard work she has done to achieve her goal of becoming a doctor.
