about the presenter
Geraldine Doogue is a renowned Australian journalist and broadcaster.
During her career she has won two Penguin Awards and a United Nations
Media Peace Prize. Quite aside from her role in print media and broadcasting,
her personal involvement in ethical, spiritual and religious issues
is extensive, and ranges from talks on spirituality in pubs to major
involvement in conferences for large corporations.
Geraldine was thrilled when she joined Compass back in 1998
- and has since been tackling issues often left unaddressed. 'I believe
there are gaps in the media's attention on many issues today' she says.
'Compass recognises those gaps will focus not only on religion
and faith, but in the changing focus of many people from economics and
technology, to values, morality, and their spiritual growth.'
With a unique approach - making complex issues accessible - Geraldine
tackles subject matters with an infectious optimism, humour and warmth. She also currently
presents Saturday Breakfast on ABC Radio National.
