Engineers Without Borders Malaysia (EWBM) is a non-profit organization established in 2012 by Latifah Hamzah, Lim Sze Wei, and Sanjiv Indran, and it was officially registered as a charity under Malaysian law in March 2013. EWBM aims to leverage the expertise of engineering students and professionals to implement projects that benefit underprivileged communities in Malaysia, with a strong focus on environmental sustainability and community empowerment [1][2].

  • Inspiration: Encouraging both engineers and non-engineers to engage in social responsibility.
  • Community Connection: Fostering connections among individuals passionate about humanitarian work in Malaysia.

The organization’s vision is for all Malaysians to have access to six fundamental human needs: water, food, shelter, power, education, and healthcare [1][2].

  • University of Nottingham Malaysia
