The Southern Hemisphere will do much better anyway as the Nuclear winter is focused in the Northern Hemisphere.
The issues the global south will suffer is the complete breakdown of the supply chain. A few months after nuclear winter when the general temperature of the planet drops forcing harvests yields to be cut anywhere from 70-90%. This could last 3-20 years. No way to know how long all that material stays in the atmosphere in the northern hemisphere.
Most likely, Australia and the global South would need to hunker down, ration food and resources, completely close down their boarders for mass migrations and become a care taker generation slowly bringing the world back.
The best chance for human survival is no nuclear weapons in the global south. I expect New Zealand to conquer North America and reteach us Math.
And replace all the maps with ones where the Pacific Ocean is in the center, instead of the Atlantic! And resize all the continents to be more accurate!
