You will also work to deliver workshops and presentations for the Efficiency for Access Design Challenge, and liaise with our partners Engineers Without Borders South Africa and USA to learn from each other’s approaches. We are looking for this to standardise these activities with a process that can involve our growing community too in the activities delivered within curriculum at university and with professionals.
Project Management: Coordination and logistics of key events and processes associated with activities and programmes, including: bi-annual submission and review processes; and organising the logistics for key Engineers Without Borders UK events; including the Grand Finals for both of our design challenges.
