The perspectives shared through these discussions, together with responses to a sector-wide survey, were among the inputs considered in the development of the joint white paper Navigating Allyship in the Transport & Construction Industry, which explores experiences of allyship across the sector and sets out a range of observations and practical considerations for organisations.

Alongside industry perspectives, the publication shares practical examples, suggestions and reflections, as well as highlighting areas where further discussion, learning and action may be needed to support meaningful and sustained progress across the transport and construction sectors.

By engaging in initiatives such as this, the Institution is helping to shape sector-wide thinking on equality, diversity and inclusion - bringing expertise into conversations that influence future policy, practice and workforce culture.

Through the CIHT Partnership Network, organisations including FM Conway take part in our EDI Community of Practice, a collaborative forum for sharing insights, learning from peers and exploring practical approaches to inclusion across the transport sector.
