  • Summary

  • Maryam Zahid first fled to Australia as a refugee from Afghanistan 26 years ago. Since then, she's been an advocate for women in her community being able to live freely and openly in their new home of Australia through her organisation Afghan Women on the Move. They help provide skills training, financial literacy and employment opportunities to women while helping to heal trauma through art programs and support groups. I'm Sam Dover and I spoke to Maryam after one of her latest efforts to get the word out about her organisation, a one-act play called The Good Woman which shares some of the stories of women helped by Afghan Women on the Move.
