Guests Adam Nathaniel Furman, artist, designer, and editor of ‘Queer Spaces’, 2022; Dr Joshua Mardell, architectural historian, and editor of ‘Queer Spaces’, 2022; Tabs The Butch Gardener, club promoter, musician, and gardening writer and Christina Riley, Planner and co-founder of Building Equality and Construct-Ability discuss how queerness must be allowed to exist and normalised at every level of the profession. From education, to practice, planning, construction, ownership, and architectural history, this conversation examines what is being done in these areas, and how to move forward to create safer environments for LGBTQ+ people in the profession and protect existing queer spaces.

From 18 to 26 November 2021, our annual Inclusion Festival took the form of a dedicated radio station, broadcast live from the bookshop at the RIBA's HQ in London.

Marsha Ramroop, former BBC journalist and the RIBA's Director of Inclusion & Diversity, hosted a lively mixture of music, live and pre-recorded interviews, discussions and debate - featuring over 90 special guests from across the worlds of architecture, design, arts, culture, and sport, as well as key leaders from the worlds of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI).
