Bangladeshi Architects in Australia was formed with a dream. The dream was to reinforce our ongoing relationships with the Australian Institute of Architects (AIA) and the Institute of Architects Bangladesh (IAB) as a group of professionals to share knowledge, experiences or just to have good times together. Another part of the dream was to create an environment of ongoing support for the younger architects coming from Bangladesh to settle here in Australia. BaA has around 65 members in Australia among five major cities.
BaA members spread knowledge through exhibitions and events. The dream is to get all Bangladeshi Architects get skills recognition and get registered in Australia. By doing so, we’ve got tremendous support from local and regional Institutes like AIA(Australian Institute of Architects),IAB(Institute of Architects Bangladesh),ARCASIA(Architects Regional Council for ASIA) ,CAA(Commonwealth Association of Architects) and major Universities in Australia. We also found tremendous supports from Australian Architects time to time.
