Australians of the Year announced

An athlete and philanthropist leading change for people with a disability... A volunteer dedicating her time to helping others in need... A young doctor re-inventing healthcare on the streets for people experiencing homelessness... And a woman changing the way rural Australia approaches alcohol use...These are the 2022 Australians of the year. That story by Brooke Young for SBS News, produced by Praba Maheswaran for SBS Tamil.
