#32 - Ivan Yeo - Dissecting the Asian Label
Manage episode 390427255 series 3386912
Rarely in conversation, do we hear about the state of Asian health. Despite being over 15% of the NZ population, it feels like this issue has dropped completely off the map. If we take the data at face value, it appears that on average asians in New Zealand, are doing alright. But within this demographic are a superdiverse population, heterogenous in culture, needs and health risks. To help me unpack this often overlooked issue of asian health, I’m speaking with Ivan Yeo, deputy director of Asian Family Services. He dispels the myths that exist and shines a light on core issues affecting families he serves.
