College and university students
Local residents
This candid conversation—co-hosted by the University of the Built Environment and the London School of Architecture—invites students, practitioners, and the public to look honestly at our cities, buildings, and practices, and to ask a difficult question: If inclusion is a shared ambition, why does exclusion remain such a familiar outcome?
Together, we’ll explore what belonging really means, where systems and design decisions fall short, and what becomes possible when belonging is understood not as a design feature, but as a collective act.
Featuring a dynamic cross-sector line-up—an LFA event not to be missed.
