Synopsis: Architecture is at a tipping point. Voices of the under-represented have been increasing in volume and are agitated for change. If we don’t collectively listen, re-adjust and change our future outlook, we limit the potential relevance of the profession in today’s society and, ultimately, the places we create. Capturing insight from leading voices in the profession, this book encourages understanding, reflection and addresses critical questions, providing steps towards meaningful change. It will help those who are under-represented to find role models, context and tools & to be confident, supported and valued. Building understanding for those more privileged to acknowledge bias, it will enable mitigation and awareness of the issues to encourage meaningful action. This is a call for change. Now.
