Stacy Wood's Company Details
At Engineers Without Borders UK we believe that people, everywhere deserve a world where they can achieve their potential and lead happy, healthy lives. Unfortunately, many of us still lack access to basic services and all of us are at risk from the challenges associated with resource constraints, the effects of climate change, increasing urbanisation and a global population that is rapidly expanding. Engineering has a pivotal role to play in the solution to every single one of these challenges and underpins the responses needed for us all to pursue a sustainable future. Our vision is a world where people, everywhere have equal access to the benefits of engineering and work towards this by leading a movement that inspires, enables and influences global responsibility through engineering. We work with the education sector to drive the creation of a new generation who have the knowledge and opportunity to be globally responsible citizens today and the globally responsible engineers of tomorrow. We work with partner organisations by providing technical support and appropriately qualified people for development projects around the world and we are a key influencer of the wider engineering profession to promote, encourage and reward a culture of collective action towards addressing global issues. We work through our members and volunteers; a network of students and professionals from across the UK who organise local events and actively deliver aspects of our programmes. Together, we are creating a new generation of globally responsible engineers.
