Its good times for the EWB Strathclyde branch! Not only has our group grown greatly in the past year, we are also hosting the International Development Conference for Scotland and North East England in March.

For our technical project we are working on the Gulper, a device to get the waste out of pit latrines. We're also working on a wind turbine project and have started going into schools with our outreach project. We also offer training events and have regular fundraising events.

We are a fun and lively branch meeting regularly on Monday evenings. Generally this is at 8pm in the Teviot Library Bar to collaborate on our research and relax over a pint. At present we have two exciting projects running this year.

The first is to research and design a sustainable, renewable method of generating electricity or fuel for rural farmers in Poipet, Cambodia. The other is Project DIEEM an exciting an innovative project designing engineering education material to produce a mannual to introduce practical technical teaching in developing countries.

EWB-GU Homepage

Welcome to EWB-GU's dusty old webpage!

It's languished for a while now - it claimed Glasgow and Strathclyde Universities still shared a branch until recently. Unthinkable.

So, this page will see a major overhaul very soon. Please be patient.

In the meantime, you should check out our REAL website at http://www.ewb-gu.org/
