ACE INFO #1 - The Newsletter of the Architects' Council of Europe
Message from the President
"High-quality architecture and built environment for everyone“ is one of the 17 topics of the Council Work Plan for Culture. Through this, the EU has taken up the momentum created by the Swiss President with the Davos Declaration last year, which is also referred in the document.
Of course we were not the only ones to push for this, but we did so by having a few meetings, in the Commission, with the Austrian Permanent Representation in Brussels, etc.

New ACE Work Group: Women in Architecture Task Force
On 12 October the Women in Architecture Task Force held its first meeting in Brussels (photo below). The Task Force was created upon request of its Chair Ursula Faix to exchange information on the different approaches to improve the gender gap situation in the EU Member Countries (E28+3) .
In fact, although the share of female architecture students is more than 50% throughout European architecture faculties, female architects are experiencing pay, visibility and stereotype gaps. In its first year of activity, the Task Force aims to understand what drives women out of the profession and to reflect on the main hands-on strategies currently implemented in the EU Countries to balance the gender gap in the architectural profession
The Task Force will run until spring 2020 and will deliver a report that will be accessible form the ACE website.
