Profile

Aoife specialises in human rights law and children’s rights, particularly in relation to children’s autonomy rights and children’s civil and political rights. Her research into how the law treats children’s competence across different areas was funded 2020-2021 by the Independent Social Research Foundation. She is at present researching how the law treats the interests of children and young people as a distinct group, particularly when it comes to climate mitigation. Her third monograph, Youth Climate Activism and International Human Rights Law, is forthcoming with Routledge, 2024.
