About People Wiki
Contents |
Building People is a hub for equity, diversity and inclusion in construction and the built environment.
Our mission is to improve representation across the built environment by enabling and empowering a collaborative movement for inclusive change.
We amplify the voices of the under-represented, empowering a ‘Network of Networks’ of over seventy organisations that have the reach into the people our sector needs.
Our commitment is to reduce fragmentation, avoid duplication and to drive collaboration.
Why Building People?
The UK needs to build, but there is a shortage of competent and experienced workers, the workforce lacks diversity and significant cultural change is required.
At Building People we:
- Bring people, needs and organisations together, enabling joined-up connections to drive collaboration and culture change.
- Amplify the voices of the under-represented, empowering a ‘Network of Networks’ that has the reach into the people our sector needs.
- Lobby and participate in industry groups and share our expertise to drive behavioural and cultural change together.
