Black + Indigenous Design Collective mission is building capacity and celebrating the advancement of Black and Indigenous voices in the spatial design fields. As a social enterprise, our goal is to advocate for the visibility, well-being, and interests of the Black and Indigenous peoples through spatial interventions, scholarship, and community engagement.
BIDC operates on the unceded, unsurrendered, and ancestral homelands of the Hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ and Sḵwxw̱ú7mesh Sníchim speaking people’s of the xwməθkwəyə̓m (Musqueam), Sḵwxw̱ú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil- Waututh) peoples.
BIDC stands for the Black+Indigenous Design Collective. Our mission is building capacity and celebrating the advancement of Black and Indigenous voices in spatial design discipline — urban planning, landscape architecture, and architecture.
We acknowledge that the spatial design fields continue to play an active role in the occupation, colonization and oppression of Indigenous people, sovereignty, agency, and authority.
We also acknowledge that these professions also impact all communities of color in ways that contribute to the displacement, continued oppression, and suppression of agency & dignity of these communities.
We strive to actively dismantle these frameworks of dominance within the spatial design fields by embodying decolonized methodologies, and increasing the voices of these oppressive communities within the spatial design professions. This mission is in alignment with larger visions of Indigenous sovereignty, Black liberation, and decolonization.
As a social enterprise, our goal is to advocate for the visibility, well-being and interests of the Black and Indigenous peoples through spatial interventions, scholarship and community engagement. We work to develop frameworks to increase Black and Indigenous youth leadership within design fields and professional industries whilst increasing visibility and educational awareness of BIPOC design.
