Sarah Kollat, teaching professor of psychology at Penn State University in the US, says there are lots of reasons people like to be scared.

INTERVIEW: Could a First Nations voice help tackle stubborn public health challenges?

Nearly two years after the failed referendum saw a First Nations voice to parliament shot down, some NGOs and state governments have been taking the initiative to follow the wishes of the majority of Indigenous communities in Australia who voted for this special representation.
