For the second year in a row, Avison
Young has partnered with Women
Photograph and engaged some of their
incredible photojournalists to capture
more powerful portraits of our people, and
keep shining a light on gender equity – a
shared challenge for both our industries.
While industry-wide change has been
slow, we are committed to supporting a
gender-balanced workforce and industry.
We’re a Globe St Diversity Champion,
CREW Partner and are actively working
to advance women in real estate.
Partnering with female and non-
binary photographers is just one more
way we can highlight the diversity
challenges facing our industries.
“We’re thrilled to be continuing our
partnership with Avison Young this
year, once again centering authentic
voices from the Women Photograph
community of 1,500+ women and
nonbinary photojournalists. Our mission
is to work towards a more equitable
and more inclusive community of visual
storytellers, and we’re proud to join forces
for this year’s Impact Report”, explains
Daniella Zalcman, Founder and Executive
Director of Women Photograph.
