In this edition of The Conversation Hour we introduce you to Santiago Velasquez. Santiago is blind and has created an app that enables public transport passengers to electronically hail a bus from their phone in real time. The technology is currently being trialled in the bus service here in Victoria. We are also joined by Vision Australia to discuss how best to improve public transport accessibility more broadly across that state.
Also in this edition, the health of netball in Australia, HRT patches in short supply, and the latest on the war in Iran.
