A+W NZ Dulux Awards

The Munro Diversity Award aims to celebrate outstanding careers or practices which continually support and/or promote diversity in architecture, and to recognise the invisible work that goes into supporting the many and varied sectors of the architectural community. We believe that the architectural profession is made stronger through the consistent support of those who encourage and celebrate diversity, and hope this award category makes this invaluable work more visible.

JUDGING CRITERIA WILL BE BASED ON;

• Evidence of continued support strategies for diversity in the workplace, including but not necessary restricted to gender
• Evidence of strategies in place for support at an individual level
• Evidence of a variety of expanded field interests and involvement
• Contribution to the wider architectural community at a social and/or political level
