Empower Communities through Engineering Excellence Award LIVE!

Empowering Communities through Engineering Excellence Award

All chapter volunteers, listen up! Here’s your chance to win R5000. Tell us how your 2015 project empowers a community through engineering excellence and stand a chance to celebrate your year’s hard work with a cash prize for you and your team!

Application Requirements:

  • Applications must be in the form of a video or an e-poster or both.
  • The video must not be shorter than 1 minute or longer than 3 minutes.
  • The e-poster should not be text-heavy. Try to add photographs or quotes from the team and the community.

Try to answer all these questions in your video or e-poster:

  1. What problem did you aim to solve?
  2. Describe how you arrived at your solution.
  3. How will your solution impact and empower the community?
  4. How have you worked as a team during this project?
  5. What did you do to build a relationship with the community you worked in?
  6. How have you transferred engineering knowledge?

Remember, it is not the biggest budget, the most work, the greatest glam that counts, but who has built a relationship with the community, identified their needs, co-created a solution and will leave a sustainable impact.

We are looking forward to your entries. Winners will be announced at the opening event of EWB-SA’s Student Leadership Summit on the 27th of November.
