IIDA Perspective - Spring/Summer 2016 - 19
IIDA Diversity Intention Statement
The International Interior Design Association
(IIDA), in recognizing that diversity is the catalyst
for innovation, thought leadership, cultural
relevance, and creativity, hereby confirms its
commitment to theQAQ implementation of a
comprehensive Diversity Initiative on behalf of its
Members and the profession of Interior Design.
IIDA will be steadfast and resolute in the advance-
ment of equity and inclusion in the professional
practice of design and throughout all sectors of
the design industry.
To that end, the Association will be a fundamental
resource, providing diversity education, mentor-
ship, outreach, and scholarship, toward the goal of
a broader and more inclusive profession that better
reflects the global society in which we all live and
work and for whom we create exceptional interior
environments. Diversity has always been a core
value and foundational concept for the Association
and its Members. Our intent with this initiative is
to further prepare design professionals to work in
an increasingly diverse and global society by
promoting equity and justice for all individuals
and to create opportunities for those traditionally
underrepresented in the profession of Interior
Design. To that end, we will actively work to
eliminate barriers and obstacles created by
institutional discrimination, long-standing habit,
and an overall lack of awareness.
As an organization, IIDA will work toward:
Actively recruiting and sustaining a diverse
member body.
Sustaining a diverse International Board of
Directors and Headquarters Staff.
Creating a formal Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity
Model Policy that can be adopted by IIDA Chapters,
design firms, and industry-related organizations.
Supporting and engaging an active Diversity
Council comprised of all segments of the
Commercial Interior Design profession.
Integrating diversity-related knowledge,
skills, and experiences throughout all efforts
of the Association.
Identifying and addressing issues and needs
of underserved populations.
Identifying and addressing global diversity
issues and needs.
Conducting comprehensive research about
diversity in the design profession and in areas
that have impact for a diverse population.
Some diversity-related challenges faced by the
design profession include the lack of equitable
access and awareness of career information and
ultimately a decided misrepresentation in interior
design by a diverse community that may include,
but is not limited to, race, ethnicity, culture,
religion, language, socioeconomic status, gender,
sexual orientation, age, and physical abilities.
It is our goal to identify challenges
in this profession and to discover,
define, and deliver comprehensive
education and solutions.
