Marta Mirosława Lempart (born 1979) is a Polish women's rights activist and the founder of the All-Poland Women's Strike.

Active since 2016 in widespread protests against tightening abortion laws under the conservative Law and Justice party, Lempart has been targeted by the government with arrests and legal charges, and faced death threats from opponents of the protests.

Her work has also included advocating for equal rights for members of Poland's LGBT community and for people with disabilities. She is a vocal proponent of secularism and the separation of church and state.
