Hatch Now: Reporting live from Sydney

HatchNOW is a current affairs program produced by Macleay journalism students with stories that interest and concern Australian youth.

Presented by Nour Ahmad, we look at how tourism in Regional NSW has been impacted by the pandemic, how families will transition back to paying for childcare, and how retail stores are trying to survive during these uncertain times.

We also investigate how nursing homes are trying to keep a sense of normalcy for their residents, how restaurants customers are not following health measures, and whether traditional and digital art can coexist in the digital era.

Reported by Annika Baker, Erin Assur, Mia Alcordo, Ashley Riordan, Mariam Sarhan and Talya Jacobson.
