Build a Better Future

Take me to the Build a Better Future Website

"building a better future" ......  images and stories of women actively engaged in the construction industry – women sharing their passions, challenges and opportunities to inspire other young women and girls to join the construction industry.

"building a better future" is a project funded by NAWIC and the Australian Government Office for Women which highlights the diversity of fields, roles, career paths, opportunities and workplaces that are available to women in the industry.

One of NAWIC's core objectives is to "encourage girls and women to pursue and establish careers in the construction industry". NAWIC believes this project will encourage more girls and young women to consider a career in construction.

Stories and images of women actively involved in the construction industry are featured on the Build a Better Future website. The stories will include information about how these women got to the position they are in, what they studied, what challenges they overcame and what the highlights of their career in construction have been. In addition to the stories the site will provide links to current websites that provide relevant training and career related information. 

NAWIC members are invited to contribute to this project and share your story. Click here to view the BBF Project Information.
