Engineers Without Borders creates opportunities for rural Africans to access clean water, generate an income from small farms, and have improved access to services and infrastructure they need to improve their lives. We harness the problem-solving approach and creative pragmatism of the Canadian engineering sector to address the root causes of poverty in rural Africa. Learn More » or Donate Now »

About Engineers Without Borders

To promote human development, we strive to drive change in Canada and in developing communities.

Here at home, EWB is raising awareness among Canadians about the impact of their daily actions on developing communities. We aim to make Canada a model global citizen in the fight against poverty.

Overseas, our volunteers promote human development in some of the world's most impoverished communities. They help build knowledge and capacity among local entrepreneurs and organisations so they can spread innovative and appropriate solutions to the challenges of poverty.
