Fame Collective

We are a research-network, exposing the barriers in architecture for Female Architects of Minority Ethnic. FAME collective was founded to support women of diverse backgrounds and ethnicities in architecture and the built environment. Our aim is to raise awareness of the barriers, inequalities and lack of diversity in architecture and to demand change. FAME collective is responding to an urgent need for understanding how race and gender affects established practitioners, young scholars and students, from diverse backgrounds, knowledge and practices by engaging in conversations about the barriers in architecture and the built environment. Our aim is to collectively respond and to demand change and the much-needed support to overcome the barriers of racial and gender inequalities both in academia and in practice. We would like to bring together established, young scholars and practitioners from a range of backgrounds, knowledge and practices to engage in conversations about the barriers in architecture faced by female architects of minority ethnic.
