BRAID is a three-year national research programme funded by the UKRI Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), led by the University of Edinburgh in partnership with the Ada Lovelace Institute and the BBC.

BRAID is dedicated to integrating Arts, Humanities and Social Science research more fully into the Responsible AI ecosystem, as well as bridging the divides between academic, industry, policy and regulatory work on responsible AI. 

As part of the overall engagement strand, BRAID Fellowships aim to bring together UK-based researchers from across the arts and humanities to drive responsible AI innovation, in partnership with the BBC and the Ada Lovelace Institute, and supported by a series of other stakeholders beyond academia.
