Andrea Martin spent 35 years as a lawyer, specialising in Media Law, when her life took an unanticipated turn in  August 2021. In response to the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan in 2021, she started lobbying to bring a group of young Afghan women to live in Ireland. Together with a group of friends and volunteers, she established a community organisation to support those young women and help them integrate into their new lives in Ireland.
Andrea’s talk shares some of the insights she has gained on this journey in her talk in Ireland at TEDx DunLaoghaire 2022.
