Activism, Dialogue
and Knowledge
Building emotional facts.
Supporting changemakers.
Inclusive and diverse narration.
Expanding communities.
Building Diversity is a non-profit organisation based in Copenhagen working for increased diverse and inclusive architectural fields and built environments.
Our community is comprised of future builders. People who are eager to expand the possibilities of collectively ensuring inclusive and diverse futures. It isn’t a quick fix or an easy task to broaden the narrative and invite new narrators.
But the change, and those who are part of it, are inevitable.
On the shoulders of those before us – we are for, by, and with the new generations of changemakers.
At our table, there’s a seat for anyone who wishes to take part. Expanding and growing: We are Building Diversity.
