“Where There Is No Engineer – Designing for Community Resilience” is a collaboration between EWB Ireland and the Development Technology in the Community (DTC) Research Group within TU Dublin. The program brings the world into the classroom to re-imagine the way we teach engineering. Each year we develop a set of design briefs with our development partners around the world, based on the real life challenges faced by communities within a specific country. Students are challenged to innovate and develop solutions and products which are appropriate to the people and the environment. Student teams participate in interactive workshops to design, build and test their concepts. The best teams showcase their innovations at a National Final and the winning team will have the opportunity to work with EWB’s partners to further develop their design/solution and receive mentorship from professionals in the field. The EWB innovation academy also works with a number of teams to develop their concepts. The initiative is supported by a range of flexible learning resources which empower lecturers to challenge the next generation of engineers to be problem solvers and innovators and to contribute in a practical way towards achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
