The JEDI talks (Just Equity Diversity Inclusion) are hosted by RIBA North East and supported by a team of architects from across the North of the UK.
The series has become a popular platform for discussion on themes varying from flexible working, the impact of the pandemic, racism versus inclusion, gender diversity and the human cost of architecture. We’re excited to announce the second talk of 2024.
So much can be achieved when large numbers of like-minded individuals work together. In this session, we'll be exploring the impact of a 'bottom-up' approach to EDI advocacy, along with the benefits and challenges of working together to create meaningful change.
Everyone is welcome to join our conversation. We endeavour to be a non-hierarchical, value-driven group in pursuit of EDI in architecture.
The discussions take place under Chatham House rules, to safeguard all who participate.
