In April 2024, the Council of Former Presidents of AIA and the 2024 Jury of Fellows raised several concerns in letters to the Board of Directors, prompting the Board of Directors to hire an external law firm, Miller & Chevalier, to conduct an independent and legally privileged review of the facts related to the issues raised. After an exhaustive and comprehensive review, the law firm has concluded its work and presented its findings and recommendations to the Board of Directors. Based on the facts presented, no wrongdoing or irregular conduct by any AIA staff or any member of the AIA Leadership Team was found to have occurred in connection with the matters raised.

The American Institute of Architects (AIA) reposted this
2024 AIA President. HOK Architect. Cornell Trustee. Detroit Daughter. Ingenuity Chicago Board Chair.
My time in Mombasa with the Architectural Association of Kenya (AAK) was nothing short of amazing. I would like to extend a huge thank you (’asante’ in Swahili) to President Florence Nyole for the invitation to this year’s conference in partnership with Habitat for Humanity International Kenya. One may wonder why the AIA President is venturing all the way to East Africa to discuss the profession of architecture, the value of design and affordable housing. The answer is simple: Africa matters. More people must understand that Africa holds so much (land, culture, history, beauty, biodiversity, resilience, brilliance, etc.) and yet it is so frequently held back by negative stereotypes and perceptions. Are things perfect around the continent? No. That’s not the case anywhere. What I’ve learned from my journey to Nigeria and Kenya this month is that many of us struggle with the same issues and we can be a resource to one another with greater collaboration. Housing scarcity is a common thread that ties us all together. I visited an informal settlement in Mombasa and I learned that the ingenuity of the people living there is formidable. They did not utilize professional services in the creation of their settlement, but I immediately saw the potential of that land with the support of planners, architects, engineers, and the entire ecosystem of built environment providers. Without help, the people are surviving. With help, they have the potential to thrive. Elevating the human experience is central to the charge of the architect. This is what I seek to convey as AIA President, wherever I go. I was thrilled that many people from the member organizations of the East African Institute of Architects (EAIA) were interested in learning more about getting involved with AIA’s new Sub-Saharan Africa section so that they too can tap into the resources of the largest design organization in the world. Being further empowered to solve local built environment challenges with access to global input is something that all AIA members can enjoy. Let’s leverage the vast resources of The American Institute of Architects (AIA) to do more. Our collective future depends on it.
