  • ... that Lynda Simmons co-founded Architecture + Women NZ with Sarah Treadwell, Julie Wilson and Megan Rule to push for equity in New Zealand architecture...? Source: "As Architecture + Women NZ continues its drive for equity in the architecture industry, we spoke to one of its cofounders...The A+W NZ founders were Julie and I, Megan Rule and Sarah Treadwell" source Also "Lynda Simmons, Julie Wilson and Megan Rule formed Architecture+Women•NZ with the core aims of achieving visibility and inclusiveness for women within the industry, and creating equality across the profession." source

    • Comment: I would like this to run on May 20 afternoon (NZ time) if possible, to coincide with two NZ women in architecture editathons. Note that some sources miss Sarah Treadwell off the list of founders of A+W NZ but Simmons includes her in her "Let's get visible" article.
