AWEC (Advancing Women In Engineering and Construction) initiative is at its core is committed to championing equity for women in their professional careers and is primarily aimed at supporting the development and retention of women in the engineering sector and associated parts of the building & construction industry.
The symposium titled “A collective voice for change” was designed to provide something different – a chance for women to connect through shared experiences, but also provide a platform to drive change as a collective. The current structure within engineering promotes success for few – we need systemic change so that everyone can find their pathway to success and career fulfilment.
We now have the website live for AWEC 2026, and ticket sales are open so I hope you will join us, and please share with the wāhine in your circles –
