Throughout February we ran a pilot design challenge, Reshaping Engineering, for professionals with and without engineering expertise which challenged the role of engineering through a globally responsible lens. We caught up with the winning team André, Bethany, Erika and Gavin, to reflect on their experience. 

Last year, in line with the Decade of Action, we launched our strategy to reach the tipping point to put global responsibility at the heart of engineering. But what does ‘tipping point’ really mean?

Whilst at COP26, we have reflected on inclusion through language and representation by learning from those faced with the daily realities of the climate crisis.

We are so excited to offer you the opportunity to deepen your understanding of global responsibility through this free, self-paced programme. Register today!

There is a stark message coming from climate scientists with the publishing of the latest (first since 2013) landmark IPCC Report. It’s a wake up call for many continuing the status quo – we have to change how we live, how we educate, and how we work.

In line with our new 2021-2030 strategy, we are hosting four Constructive Conversations sessions that will explore our four globally responsible principles; responsible, purposeful, inclusive and regenerative. We began by interrogating the responsible principle.

For the first time, this year’s Inspiring Community Leaders training series featured a workshop hosted by Engineers Without Borders International, investigating engineering ethics and the future of engineering education.

During our Inspiring Community Leaders series, we invited professionals from across the sector to tell us about their experiences, including how they landed their first job to how they ended up where they are today.

We asked The Gold Design Award winners of the Designathon, Mairéad, Matt and Julia about their experience, the lessons they have learnt and what advice they would give to students looking to participate in the future.
