Women’s History Month—a time to both reaffirm and uphold the historical importance, achievements, and influence of women on the built environment. ULI is committed to pursuing unrelenting efforts to shape the built environment toward diverse, equitable, inclusive communities. Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are the pillars of sustainable, thriving communities. We commit to leading the charge, striving to inspire widespread change by example. We will work tirelessly across the real estate industry to ensure that our communities are equitable by design.

In recognition of Women’s History Month, ULI SF DEI members have curated a list of resources to reflect on the contributions and experiences of women in the real estate industry and beyond. Join ULI SF in reading, watching, listening, and acting towards a more equitable future for our communities.
