Description
The BWiC 2026 Inspire Awards honor and celebrate the most exceptional women in construction — those who embody leadership, generosity, innovation, and unwavering dedication to their careers, colleagues, and the industry as a whole.
We’re looking for trailblazers — women who are making their mark and inspiring others through their achievements, resilience, and impact.
Hosted By:
Diana Fernandez Bibeau, Deputy Chief of Urban Design, BPDA
Diana Fernandez Bibeau is the Deputy Chief of the Urban Design Division and works to elevate the importance of urban design and champion the transformative power of sustainable and walkable communities for all ages and abilities. In partnership with Chief Shen and the Planning Department’s Urban Design Division, Fernandez works to strategically transform existing BPDA urban design processes to promote predictability and quality for both the community members and the development industry. With over a decade of private practice experience, Diana has built a design portfolio that reassesses the policies that have perpetuated race, gender, environmental, and socioeconomic inequality and created design methodologies that can respond to and correct them. As part of her work, Fernandez partners on the Mayor's Green New Deal agenda with the City departments, including the Boston Transportation Department, the Environment Department, Parks, Office of Housing, Public Works, Public Facilities, Boston Public Schools, and Boston Public Libraries, to align urban design efforts into a comprehensive vision for Boston.
