Methodology
- Unless otherwise stated, the data in this report is current as of June 30, 2021 (Q2 2022).
- Member data used in this report is self-reported by members via their profiles in netFORUM, ULI’s system of record. This data is provided as part of the join and/or renewal processes.
- ULI began requiring members to provide race and ethnicity data in December 2019 and as a result there remain significant gaps in our records. Where ULI has statistically significant data samples (e.g. for U.S. membership as a whole) the charts reflect the breakdown of data that exists. In the interests of transparency, for smaller groups (e.g. leadership groups) the gaps in data have been left in the sample size. ULI sees getting statistically significant sample sizes as a priority and urges its members to complete their member profiles with this information. A chart showing our progress to date is included in this report.
- Data relating to race and ethnicity for membership at large is only captured in the United States. However, to provide a picture of ULI’s global leadership, member leaders outside of the U.S. were contacted and asked to provide information on race and ethnicity based on the criteria used in the U.S. census.
- Staff data is supplied by employees at the time of joining ULI and/or updated on-demand and is kept by ULI’s HR department.
