Revolving Door Syndrome is a podcast by Dr Nina Su. Each episode we kōrero about our health, education and justice systems and reflect on the challenges everyday New Zealanders face. Some systems and policies feel like revolving doors going round in circles without achieving meaningful change. We bring you engaging dialogue from people of different backgrounds in the hopes to find realistic solutions to systemic problems.

Maybe we'll cover other spaces and times eventually. It's up for debate - currently at a 50/50 split - but no body of leadership is ever ...
