100 Day Studio: AF Young Trustees with Gurmeet Sian, Alisha Morenike Fisher & Ken Okonkwo

Day 49 of the 100 Day Studio: What effect does harnessing the unlimited potential of a more diverse architectural profession have on our cities and communities? The third conversation organised by the Architecture Foundation’s Young Trustees explores ways that we can push for change within the profession, as well as the opportunities this change creates for the outcomes of our work. They are joined by Gurmeet Sian, founder of Office Sian, Alisha Morenike Fisher, co-founder of Black Females in Architecture and Migrant’s Bureau and Ken Okonkwo, Associate Director at Haworth Tompkins and architectural advisory board member of the Stephen Lawrence Trust to discuss the different ways in which they have broken the mould to push for change, the challenges they have faced along the way and the progress they have made.
