Through professional trajectories, built projects and leadership experiences, the conversation examines how architecture can engage with social, cultural and urban contexts in more meaningful ways. From large-scale developments to strategic roles within global practices, the discussion highlights how women are actively influencing the way spaces are conceived, designed and experienced today.
