In this episode of YEPs on the Ground, we sit down with Máirín McGrath, a Young Elected Politician from Ireland and member of the European Alliance (EA) group in the European Committee of the Regions.

From her strong advocacy for rural communities to her outspoken stance on Ireland’s housing crisis, Máirín brings a grounded and passionate perspective on how local politics can drive real, inclusive change.

She shares her experience tackling rural underrepresentation, the urgent need for affordable and accessible housing; including for people with disabilities, and the policies she believes can make the EU a more equitable place for all.

Tune in for an insightful conversation that bridges rural realities, social justice, and youth leadership in Europe.
