Moving Beyond Diversity

Moving Beyond Diversity

Diversity is being invited to the party. Inclusion is being asked to dance. ~ Vernā Myers

How do we move beyond diversity to achieve contract compliance to making fundamental change with lasting results? What can the private sector learn from public procurement to model the same equity on their design and construction projects? How do we create project teams that reflect society’s evolving values and goals, not just the project scope?

Join us for an open dialogue with leaders from public and private development agencies in a timely discussion on redefining how we show up for equity, diversity, and inclusion.
