The partnership will help support the organisation’s mission of bringing together the global Engineers Without Borders movement so that millions more people can benefit from work addressing today’s most pressing challenges and accelerating progress for a sustainable and equitable future for all.
Engineers Without Borders is a network of organisations sharing the same name.
This new partnership between Bentley Systems and Engineers Without Borders International aims to unite Engineers Without Borders organisations as a global force for good, providing the engineering leadership needed to tackle the global challenges humanity faces at a scale that is meaningful before it is too late.
The partnership, which includes five years of core funding and executive insights, fundamentally strengthens the capacity of Engineers Without Borders International to drive more collaboration and cooperation within the movement, deliver better results and unlock its global impact.
Why now?
Humanity is facing significant global challenges. The climate crisis poses the greatest threat to life that we have ever faced, and millions of people still lack access to clean drinking water, improved sanitation facilities, nutritious food, safe housing, and reliable energy. It has never been more important to fulfil the Engineers Without Borders mission: Uniting the engineering sector to help build a world where everyone and the planet can thrive.
Engineers Without Borders organisations across the globe are already working to deliver this vision: Changing lives daily by delivering critical infrastructure to communities in need and people in crisis and reimagining the future by nurturing new engineering solutions and building a compassionate and eager engineering community. The key potential this partnership unlocks is efficiency and scale.
working to reimagine tomorrow through nurturing new engineering solutions and a capable engineering community so that all people and the planet can thrive.
