In 2013, the Irish Prime Minister apologised to Ireland's Magdalene Laundry survivors for the incarceration and forced labour they suffered in the Catholic Church-run institutions between 1922 and 1996. Maeve O'Rourke's talk will explore how survivor testimonies sparked a national and international human rights debate, which ultimately led to a State apology and reparations scheme in 2013.

Maeve O'Rourke is a human rights lawyer and World Economic Forum 'Global Shaper'. In 2013, she was named the Family Law Pro Bono Lawyer of the Year for her advocacy on behalf of survivors of Ireland's Magdalene Laundries.

Maeve has campaigned with the advocacy group Justice for Magdalenes Research (www.magdalenelaundries.com) since 2010.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
