How we are creating a sustainable society
Inspiring global audiences
We hosted the UK leg of a special 24-hour live broadcast for UNESCO’s World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development, attracting more than 30,000 views. Our broadcast highlighted our work to support innovation and build capacity in Africa, and streamed live from a joint event with One Young World about how young leaders can work together to tackle the world's greatest challenges.
Engineering solutions
More than 30 of the researchers we’ve funded over the past year are working on solutions in areas relevant to sustainability, including renewable energy, clean drinking water, energy-saving electronic devices, environmental engineering, solar integration, ocean pollution and resilient infrastructure.
Promoting engineering expertise
Engineering Zero, an Academy-wide campaign to advance and promote the crucial contribution engineers can make to move us closer to achieving a thriving, low-carbon economy and reaching net zero future, launched during COP26 with a raft of activities aimed at policymakers, government, educators, the profession, and the public.
How we are creating an inclusive economy
Understanding barriers to inclusion
The Hamilton Commission published its report to improve representation of Black people in UK motorsport, with recommendations to achieve industry-wide change and encourage more young Black students to pursue subjects that lead to careers in engineering.
Supporting low-income students
In partnership with Amazon, we launched a new bursary for women engineering students from low-income households to support their study of computer science or an engineering-related degree at a UK university.
Diversifying our Fellowship
Our most diverse group of Fellows in the Academy’s history was elected under the Fellowship Fit for the Future initiative to drive more nominations of outstanding engineers from underrepresented groups.
