Join the J.E.D.I. Committee for an interactive panel on cultivating diverse voices in architecture. Panelists, spanning all career stages, will share and reflect on their intersectional professional experiences shaped by race, gender, religion, culture, and disability?related perspectives. Moving beyond statistics and the pitfalls of performative inclusion, the session examines what real diversity and participation mean for teams, firm culture, and decision?making. The panel will explore how awareness and understanding must drive action to support resilience, equity, and authenticity for underrepresented voices in the AEC industry. Attendees will gain insight into how intentional inclusion strengthens collaboration, enriches design, and builds a more adaptable, representative profession.
