    the art of saving lives with MARIANNE JAUNCEY
    Nov 12 2026

    What does it mean to care for people without judging them? Marianne Jauncey, Medical Director of Sydney’s Uniting Medically Supervised Injecting Centre, joins Peter and Kasia to explore the life-saving power of harm reduction and why drug use should be treated as a health and social issue, not simply a criminal one.


    Marianne explains how supervised injecting centres prevent overdose deaths, connect people with treatment and support, and challenge the stigma surrounding addiction. With more than 1.3 million supervised injections, 12,500 overdoses managed and no deaths on site, she makes a compelling case for dignity over judgement, compassion over punishment, and finding meaningful work that reflects our deepest values.
