In partnership with both The Architectural Review and the Architects’ Journal, the W Programme and the W Awards are two distinct campaigns that promote equality and diversity in architectural practice through a series of networking and social events, mentoring sessions, inspiring lectures and a celebration of best practice. We want to inspire change as a united voice.

The aim of the W Programme is to create better and healthier working environments for everyone in architecture, fostering a culture of respect and equal opportunities. We do this by delivering year-round opportunities for architects to connect, share and learn. To find out more about how to become a W Programme practice partner, head here

The W Awards are designed to recognise and reward both established and emerging excellence in architecture practice. To check out our past winners, you can find more details here. The shortlist for 2024's awards will be announced in March 2024.
