Episode notes

The issue is more frequent than it seems and often affects people one would never imagine. We spoke to some of victims of domestic violence and learned how they overcame the situation - their names are fictitious and their voices have been altered for security reasons. We also spoke to immigration lawyer Danuzia Pontes, who explains that there are visa alternatives for those who suffer this type of violence. This is what immigrants who suffer domestic violence in Australia can do.
