Women's pensions in stasis
Dr Michelle Maher reflects on the slow progress for women's pensions in Ireland since the publication of her PhD thesis, The Politics of Pensions in Ireland, in 2016, reviewing the previous 50 years in Ireland.
Dr Michelle Maher is a woman who dedicates her time to issues that matter a lot. Today, she manages the excellent See Her Elected programme, which supports the women in rural Ireland who want to become county councillors or otherwise get involved in local politics.
Her earlier career was in the pensions industry, followed by an academic career, during which she undertook a review of a half-century of pension policy in Ireland for her PhD thesis, The Politics of Pensions in Ireland.
