At a reception at the British Embassy in Abu Dhabi, RIBA—via sponsorship from Geberit, global player in sanitary technology—launched its new Gulf Chapter, which aims to support architecture, architects and design professionals in the GCC.
With no other architecture institute in the Middle East, RIBA Gulf will represent and engage locally-based architects and design professionals through education, Continuing Professional Development (CPD), networking opportunities, lectures and other activities.
“The launch of our Gulf Chapter highlights the significance of our members’ presence in the Gulf States and will enable us to provide further local support,” said Ruth Reed, president of RIBA, at the launch event. “The Chapter will also be working to engage further with the diversity of non-member architects working in the region and to promote best practice in architectural education by working closely with local universities.”
RIBA Gulf is open to all members in the region, as well as professionals working across Saudi Arabia, the UAE and other GCC states.
“The whole business of architecture is far more global now, and UK architects in particular are more global,” said Richard Brindley, RIBA executive director of professional services.”
