Munroe BergdorfDistinguished Activist, Model and UN Women UK Changemaker

Munroe Bergdorf is a prominent campaigner and model who stands at the forefront of global discussions regarding inclusion, feminism and the transgender community. As the first transgender model to front a L’Oréal Paris campaign in the United Kingdom, she has used her platform to challenge industry norms and advocate for marginalized voices. Her influence extends across the fashion world, having featured in US Vogue and The Guardian, closed shows at London and New York Fashion Weeks, and collaborated with major brands such as Illamasqua and Missguided. Recognised for her commitment to social progress, Bergdorf was appointed a UN Women UK Changemaker and received an honorary Doctor of Letters from the University of Brighton in 2019. Her media contributions are extensive, including the Channel 4 documentary What Makes A Woman, where she explored the complexities of gender identity as both author and subject. She also holds a position on the UK Diversity and Inclusion Advisory Board for L’Oréal Paris, where she provides strategic guidance on representation for black, trans and queer individuals within the beauty sector. Beyond her media work, Bergdorf is a regular consultant for FTSE 100 companies, advising on how to build equitable workplace cultures through education and accountability. She is frequently booked by organisations for her ability to speak with authority and empathy on race, diversity and gender, helping audiences navigate modern social shifts with clarity and purpose. On stage, Munroe Bergdorf is best known for talks on Diversity & Inclusion. Audiences leave with a clear, practical view of the subject rather than a generic overview — every keynote is shaped around the brief and the room. Munroe Bergdorf is regularly booked for Conference Speaker and Business Speaker, adapting tone, length and format to suit the event — from a 20-minute opener to a full conference keynote with Q&A.
