Working towards a vision of Inclusive Engineering.
Towards Vision is a consultancy run by Dawn Bonfield MBE FREng.
I work and consult on a variety of projects in the engineering sector including: inclusive engineering outcomes; engineering education; sustainable development and the SDGs; access, inclusion and sustainability in the built environment; EDI (equity, diversity and inclusion) with a focus on gender; ethics and global responsibility; engineering outreach; and the history of women in engineering. Through Towards Vision I work collaboratively with companies, charities, government, policy makers, organisations and other interested groups.
Please get in touch with me if you would like to know more about my work, or have a collaboration in mind.
