The Foundation is involved in setting up community schools in poor and working class neighbour hoods in Lahore, Pakistan. In 2013 Doctor Amjad Ayub Mirza established Tehreek e Itefaq East Rai, TIR, (Movement for Consensus of Opinion) in Pakistan.
He came to the conclusion that the left in the United Kingdom as well as in Pakistan is dominated by the Trotskyite trend that was toeing the line of imperialism of defaming the Soviet Union and other socialist countries. The Foundation also (time and again) is responsible for organising event to highlight the gains of socialist countries. The main aim of this movement is to propagate Marxism in Pakistan among the working classes and to create a consensus among them that their salvation and final emancipation lies in the uncompromising struggle against feudalism, comprador capitalism, imperialist domination and revisionism.
TIR proposes to organise a people"s democratic revolution in Pakistan in order to establish a Socialist society.
However during this period he travelled to United Kingdom and held several meetings with leading members of the British left. Doctor Mirza is also a full member of the Communist Party of Great Britain (Marxist-Leninist).
