But in the engineering sector\, the number of Indigenous engineers employed in Australia remains low. How can we attract this critical Indigenous knowledge into the sector\, and build a better representation of First Nations engineers? \nThis year\, the theme for National Reconciliation Week (May 27 – 3 June) is ‘Be a Voice for Generations’. The theme encourages all Australians to be a voice for reconciliation in tangible ways in our everyday lives – where we live\, work and socialise. \nJoin us online on Wednesday 31 May as we celebrate National Reconciliation Week and hear from First Nations role models in the sector about their career pathways and how to ensure First Nations voices are better represented in the sector. \nThis event will be hosted by EWB Australia STEM Pathways Lead\, Josh MacLeod\, who will be joined by guest speakers\, Melanie Grills (Arup Associate Principal – First Nations Programs & Projects) and Brody Mitchell (Wollongong City Council Civil Engineer Cadet). They will share their experience working in the industry\, their journey to where they are today and the challenges they experienced along the way. We’ll also hear their advice for aspiring First Nations engineers as well as their insights on how employers can create a more supportive work environment to attract First Nations youth into the sector. \nRegister for this free event here.

In June 2022\, we mobilised volunteer engineers from across the world to respond to the engineering needs of 112 expressions of interest for assistance\, from flood-affected Northern Rivers residents. \nThis was the first time EWB mobilised engineering support to respond to a climate-related disaster in Australia. Two years on from the floods\, we have had an opportunity to speak with residents and volunteers to learn what worked well\, what did not\, and where we could do better in the future to assist communities recover from disasters \nJoin EWB and HHUG for an evening of coming together\, reflection and learning as we share: \n\nA short film that shares the stories of flood-affected residents\, documents the engineering response and highlights the challenges experienced by residents and volunteers;\n\n\nA presentation from EWB and HHUG about learnings from this pilot project;\n\n\nA panel discussion hosted by HHUG Co-Director Ella Rose Goninan on how we can apply learnings from the 2022 flood recovery response to future disasters\, what support is required for communities to thrive and\, where to from here for the Northern Rivers community. Ella will be joined on the panel by Civil Engineer and EWB Volunteer Dominic Cavanough (Cav)\, EWB Chief Engineer Peter McArdle\, Resilient Uki Founder Melanie Bloor and Richmond Landcare Project Office Ivy Young;\n\n\nAn audience Q&A with our panel members. If you would like our panel members to answer a question\, please submit your question when RSVPing to this event.\n\nThis is a free event – all are welcome to attend! \nFood will be provided.
