This guidebook aims to support individuals and organisations in making central London’s real estate sector more welcoming and inclusive by recognising how overlapping identities – such as race and gender, disability and class, or faith and sexuality – can shape lived experience, opportunity and disadvantage, and what this means for inclusive leadership, culture and decision-making in real estate.
It provides best-practice examples, signposts to relevant resources and offers practical guidance for applying intersectional thinking across the property sector. The guidebook also explores how the built environment can be planned, designed and managed in ways that better respond to complexity, reduce exclusion and support spaces that work for a wide range of lived experiences.
This guidebook is produced in partnership with PREACH Inclusion®.
In her foreword, Priya Aggarwal-Shah, Founder and Director of PREACH Inclusion writes:
“We have seen greater recognition of the importance of DEI, more networks and initiatives, and a growing appetite for collaboration across the sector. Yet there are still many gaps; diverse representation at senior levels continues to lag, barriers to progression persist and intersectional experience are too often overlooked”
The research has been informed by a London Property Alliance roundtable attended by CPA and WPA members, co-opted experts and stakeholders from local government.
