WiA is a platform that strives to promote, advance and celebrate women’s ongoing contribution to architecture.

About us

Women in Architecture UK (WiA) is a volunteer-led organisation that offers a platform for debate, idea exchange and support for women in architecture, practice, education and the wider built environment. WiA strives to promote, advance and celebrate women’s ongoing contribution to architecture. We aim to raise the profile, represent the views and promote the progression of women in architecture and the built environment professions. WiA are driven by a desire to tackle the deep-rooted, well-documented gender disparities within the profession. We will address the structural, institutional and cultural issues facing women within the profession and within education. With the aim of stopping the talent drain of women from our profession and ensuring the voices of women in architecture are heard. We are pushing to disrupt the familiar narrative of architectural history, from which women are largely omitted and obscured, by supporting, inspiring and championing women in architecture and diversity in architecture as a whole. We believe this will have a positive impact on the built environment and secure a legacy of inspiration for future generations. All correspondence via hello@wia-uk.org please.

  • Don't miss out—it's the final opportunity to secure your ticket! Women in Architecture (WIA) UK has collaborated again this year with UKREiiF with two main events. On Tuesday, 20th May, join us for a panel discussion featuring inspiring stories from women leaders, as they explore how women are breaking barriers in leadership. The conversation will highlight the power of diversity in leadership to foster collaboration and create a built environment that more effectively serves diverse communities. The second event held on Thursday, 22nd May, will explore how gender diversity within the built environment industries - real estate, property, architecture, planning - can drive both financial success and meaningful social value creation. We will debate how diverse leadership teams are uniquely positioned to build stronger communities, and achieve sustainable outcomes. WIA are pleased to give away six tickets to UKREiiF for women who have not attended before and might not have the means to afford a ticket. Three of the six tickets will be reseverd for individuals under 35. All you need to tell us is how attending the event benefits you, and what you aim to get from the conference, in 200 words. Write your expressions of interest using the link : https://lnkd.in/gQ_XGuxd by 31st March, 2025.
