New Architecture Writers & The Architecture Foundation present: NAH! LEARNING HOW TO SAY NO
Thursday 15 October 2020, 7pm - 8pm \ via Zoom
Hosted by Lois Innes and Ewa Effiom, with Alice Grandoit & Joseph Zeal-Henry
Have you ever said no to an opportunity that felt a bit...off?
At times, conversations around inequality within the architecture and design industries can manifest in acts of tokenism, unfair pay and the general relentless asking of BAME individuals to report on diversity and little else (yawn).
So when is the right time to say no? We would like to hear from our guests as well as our audience; how did you overcome that moral 'hotspot'? How did you say no? Did this influence the way you approached or accepted work after?
Join Lois Innes and Ewa Effiom as we discuss this with the panel of invited guests.
