Episode 34 - George Newhouse
Human rights lawyer George Newhouse could easily have continued working in corporate law in New York and London. Instead he returned home and co-founded the National Justice Project - where he uses the law in ways that support and advance social justice for asylum seekers, youth detainees and First Nations people. George shares his story on Season Five of the Igniting Change Podcast.
