Discover the first female president of Ireland, Mary Robinson!

Mary Robinson grew up with four brothers – something which gave her an interest in women’s rights from a young age!

From law to politics, the presidency to the United Nations, Mary has spent her life fighting for equality, human rights and climate justice.
