International Women’s Day this year is all about #inspiringinclusion and as we’ve been at Futurebuild this week we kept our focus on women in construction and spoke with a few individuals for their inspiring words.Rachel Heaton, industry engagement manager for construction says the following:Having worked in construction and facilities management for over 20 years, traditionally a male-dominated sector, there is a vital need for change and growth when it comes to inclusivity. I am inspired to see that many stakeholders across industry are now building on the lessons of the past and coming together to work towards lasting change.Over the past week, we have been advocating GS1 standards in construction at Futurebuild. It has been a fantastic event and I have truly enjoyed the many conversations I’ve had with inspiring female professionals from across UK construction. It has also been great to see the use of GS1 standards gain momentum across the build environment and facilities management, and I look forward to our continued collaboration with members and partners to accelerate adoption further. I would like to give special thanks to the following key groups that are offering dedicated support and empowerment to women within the AEC industry, enhancing their skills, education and career progression.Women in BIM Women into Construction CIC Institute of Workplace and Facilities Management Marie Grieve Giulia Pustorino Elaine Lewis Alix Tissier #IWD2024 #internationalwomensday #Femaleempowerment
