NAWIC encourages women to pursue, establish and sustain successful careers in the construction and infrastructure sectors.

We hold regular events, with a focus on both technical and professional development, to inform and up-skill women in construction and to promote networking and information sharing for the betterment of the construction sector as a whole. These events are held in person and online covering a wide variety of topics.
