How equitable is your design?

You are invited to join Arup on Tuesday 7th March at the Library of Birmingham for a discussion on how equity plays an important role in modern design, architecture, and urban planning.

Equity can be addressed on many levels, and as a business, architecture and design should be considered important tools to materialise the principal equity in the spaces we live and work in. Four of our leading experts in the Midlands will lead a panel discussion into several of the biggest topics relating to equity considerations in the built environment. Expect to gain an insight into best practices and considerations for embracing equity in your architecture and design.
