CIBSE marks Women in Engineering Day with event on inclusive design

CIBSE mark International Women in Engineering Day

CIBSE Young Engineers Network and Women in Building Services Engineering (WiBSE) are hosting a panel discussion on the theme of inclusive design, linking to the International Women in Engineering Day (Inwed) theme, ‘Make Safety Seen’.

The hybrid event, on 22 June, will be chaired by Ruth Carter. To register to attend, visit www.cibse.org

International Women in Engineering Day takes place on 23 June, and promotes the work of women engineers across the globe. 

Inwed aims to give female engineers around the world a profile, at a time when they are still hugely underrepresented. Figures for 2021 indicate that only 16.5% of engineers in the UK are women, and the event aim is to encourage more young women and girls to take up engineering careers. www.inwed.org.uk
