The architectural profession should reflect the diversity of the communities we design for – join us in driving this change throughout the South West.
We are looking for RIBA Members from across the South West who would like to join a regular online group to discuss the issues facing architects and how to overcome barriers so that we can make working in architecture a more inclusive place for all.
Chaired by Tony Berongoy from Willmore Iles Architects, this meeting will take place quarterly and will be facilitated by RIBA. The agenda will be open initially, giving you the opportunity to connect and share your experiences, contribute ideas, and stay informed about EDI initiatives within the built environment.
We want to connect with architects from across the region whether you’re in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, or Dorset. Each area has its own challenges and perspectives, and by working together, we can build a stronger, more representative profession.
Get involved
If you’re interested in shaping this conversation—whether through sharing your experiences, offering ideas, or simply staying informed—we’d love to hear from you at our first meeting. If you would feel more comfortable emailing your experience or thoughts in advance, please get in touch: riba.southwest@riba.org
This meeting will be held on Microsoft Teams and a link to the event will be sent at least 48 hours before the event.
If you have any questions or accessibility requirements, please contact riba.southwest@riba.org
To ensure an inclusive and open conversation, this meeting will not be recorded.
