AA alum Hannah Durham and Grace Choi have co-edited a RIBA publication titled Inclusion Emergency: Diversity in Architecture. Capturing insight from leading voices in the profession, this book encourages understanding and reflection. It addresses critical questions, providing steps towards meaningful change. It proposes to help those who are under-recognised to find the role models, community and tools to feel confident, supported and valued. It will also help those intimidated by change to understand why it’s so important and provoke constructive action.

The topics and experiences provide a rich foundation for building an inclusive future that represents the diverse population we serve. The book includes contributions from Amy Francis-Smith, Ben Stephens, Charlie Edmonds, Clare Nash, Danni Jennifer Lewin Kerr, Darren Bray, Hannah Day, Dr Igea Troiani, Indujah Srikaran, Lanré Gboladé, Martha Summers, Mary Holmes, Nadir Mahmood, Maryam Al-Irhayim, Nick Walker, Rob Hyde, Ryder Architecture, Dr Saiyyidah Zaidi, Sarah Ackland, Savannah Williams, Dr Stephen Parnell, Sumita Singha, Tim Bailey and Tobi Sobowale.
