Chapters bring together EWB members who wish to act as a group; having regular meetings, events, and working on projects together. Chapters are usually based in a city or university campus. Chapters act to inspire, educate, train, and provide opportunities for members to contribute to EWB's vision. They also celebrate and share learnings from other members.
Chapters are the heart and soul of EWB and are a great way to become involved at a grass roots level. Chapters offer a framework for members to work in your local area as well as a great way to meet people with similar values. Chapters focus on:
- Creating a sense of excitement and understanding about international development
- Educating engineers and engineering students about appropriate and sustainable technologies
- Helping prepare members for overseas placements
- Working on local projects in partnership with local community organisations
- Conducting outreach activities to raise awareness of development among the community
