Below are a few innovative initiatives where we have partnered with a few organisations to progress human rights in the UK and globally, support our next generation of leaders from diverse backgrounds with a special award at Oxford University and also develop an independent research report focused on the boardroom called 'The Brawn Review' commenced at Oxford University and being completed at Roehampton University.
TMBDLF 'GLOBAL GENDER HUMAN RIGHTS'
The TMBDLF 'Global Gender Human Rights' initiative (TMBDLF GGHR) aims to fight against injustice against women and girls while suporting women and girls who face discrimination, stigma, violence and criminalisation across the UK and globally.
This will officially launch during International Women's Month 2024 with the goal of advancing women's and girl's human rights, while working towards eliminating gender discrimination and associated intersectional discrimination. This will be through various collaborations and partnerships with gender focused organisatons like Action Aid UK.
This launch includes an innovative and new tailored scholarship called "Global Gender Human Rights" to support our next generation of human rights leaders.

THE BRAWN REVIEW
Boardroom Sustainability, Inclusion and Corporate Governance
Professor Miranda K. Brawn announced the commencement of the independent research report in September 2022 at the start of her role as a Senior Visiting Fellow at Oxford University called 'The Brawn Review: Boardroom Sustainability, Diversity, Inclusion and Corporate Governance' with TMBDLF.
The final research report findings will be published and shared at the 10th Miranda Brawn Diversity Leadership Annual Lecture in October 2025 due to be held at the House of Lords. This will be part of TMBDLF's 10 year anniversary celebrations.
Further details will be shared in due course to mark this key milestone in the history of The Miranda Brawn Diversity Leadership Foundation (TMBDLF).
The Miranda Brawn Diversity Leadership Annual Lecture 2016 made UK history for being the first of its kind on 16th October 2016. This was complimented by our leading and innovative educational diversity scholarships across many sectors for students which have inspired many others to follow our lead.
Here our Founder and President Prof Miranda K. Brawn shares the background behind her idea to launch the Charity and its associated annual scholarship programmes and diversity leadership lecture events in October 2016.
