Inclusive education

RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) are working to ensure that the architecture sector and the wider construction industry is representative of the communities and societies we serve, through inclusive education. We acknowledge the barriers to entry and progression in the profession, and this particularly impacts individuals from underrepresented and under-recognised groups. As we work to promote and broaden access to the profession, explore our resources and initiatives below.
