Education
The Mary Robinson Centre will foster the research and develop the knowledge and skills required to tackle key global challenges facing humanity in the 21st Century. Our planet’s fundamental problems cannot be effectively tackled by a system which does not harness all available talent and energy. Mary Robinson’s archive will be the centrepiece of the educational facility, and NUI Galway will bring researchers and students from all over the world to Ballina to engage with the archive and participate in an academic programme of events, including an annual signature event which will bring globally recognised women in leadership positions to Ballina to share and inspire.
