Nationwide festival Women in (Landscape) Architecture from June 19 to 29, 2025

Women in Architecture is an initiative to make women visible in architecture, urban planning, landscape and interior design, architecture and to promote diversity in building culture. The first festival of this kind took place in Berlin in 2021; the second will be organized from 19 to 29 June 2025 and will highlight the achievements of female planners and the topic of diversity in building culture in numerous events throughout Germany. The WIA 2025 is supported and accompanied by the Federal Minister of Building, Klara Geywitz (BMWSB), and the President of the Federal Chamber of Architects, Andrea Gebhard, as patrons.

The aim of the WIA Festival is to make the "inspiring paths" of women in "the so-called male domain of construction" visible "and to give more space to the wealth of ideas of female architects, interior designers, landscape architects and urban planners," says Andreas Gebhard. "I hope that the female view of our built environment will broaden established perspectives. Equal opportunities and diversity make us stronger as a society."

Women in Landscape Architecture WILA 2025

As in 2021, when the landscape architects of the bdla Berlin/Brandenburg invited to "WILA 24h", a 24-hour event about women in landscape architecture, there will also be numerous contributions from landscape architects from all over Germany to the WIA Festival 2025, i.e. WILA 2025. The aim is to present the achievements of women and to enter into a discourse with other disciplines to promote diversity in building culture.

The already planned event of the bdla association on March 14 and 15, 2025 in Berlin on "Gender Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (GDI) in the Professional Field of Landscape Architects" forms the thematic introduction and the first contribution of the federal association to the WIA/WILA Festival 2025

The Berlin Chamber of Architects is the umbrella organization for the WIA Festival 2025 at federal level; the bdla Berlin/Brandenburg is the lead organization within the bdla. The WILA landscape architects have already put their experiences, expectations and event ideas down on paper and hope "that the spark of enthusiasm for WILA 2025 will be ignited".
