#ARA2024 a highlight for me, Mary Robinson, 60 years of legacy (670 boxes & growing) inspiring the next generation ✊#WomensHistory

#ARA2024 There’s CVs and then there’s women who change the world. Still very active Robinsons current project is women & #Climate change the ‘Dandelion Project’ projectdandelion.com

'Inspiring the next generation of Climate Activists'. Our fabulous chair Niamh Ní Charra is speaking about the Mary Robinson archive. A fitting topic to match this year's theme, along with a wonderful showcase of the work undertaken by Mary over the last 60 years #ARA2024

#ARA2024 Niamh Ní Charra makes the important point from the Mary Robinson Foundation that #climateChange disproportionately& adversely affects women. (This has knock on effects for #nursing & #archives both sectors primarily made up of women; we should be visibly active)

#ARA2024 what joy to hold an archive for an icon who inspires and informs (Mary Robinson) when your job is to inspire and inform Niamh Ní Charra 💙👏

One of my favourite talks 👇🙏 #ARA2024
