WISA was established in 2019 by an international group of women working in traditional stone trades (dry stoners, carvers, masons, sculptors etc), who are keen to connect with and support other women also involved, or those keen to give it a try. The primary purpose of the alliance is to:
- Raise the profile of women’s contribution to the trades
- Encourage and inspire
- Advocate across relevant industries
- Run conferences and events
- Build community
At the end of 2020 WISA conducted a survey which was completed by 149 women from 12 countries and a range of stone trades or relevant interests. The results will guide WISA’s plans for the years ahead. The survey remains open and we invite any women interested in traditional stone trades to complete it at any time Click here for the WISA survey
