EQN goes international
20 September, 2024
As part of our work within the DivAirCity project, EQN has been tasked with creating international sister networks in the five primary cities (Aarhus, Bucharest, Castellón, Orvieto and Postdam). However, our aim extends far beyond this initial goal as we aspire to establish networks, for women in the built environment at senior level and diversity in the construction sector, in as many countries as possible. This will create a robust global community that fosters cultural exchange, shares best practices, and collaborates on projects that benefit all our communities.
We are excited to announce the launch of the first 2 of these networks – EQN Serbia and EQN Nigeria.

Tailored for local impact
Recognising the unique challenges in each country, EQN adapts its activities to local needs through local steering groups. We share knowledge, activities and expertise across the global network and tailor our approach to drive effective change in each locality.
