The UNESCO Engineering Report (2021) recognizes that solutions to the problems reside predominantly in engineering ingenuity and innovations. As an engineering body, WFEO raises awareness about the climate crisis and the urgent need for action among National Member Engineering Organizations and stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>The Committee of Women in Engineering is keenly aware that the poorest members of society will experience the most severe impacts of this crisis and seeks to contribute solutions in collaboration with other world engineering and scientific bodies, as well as high level government representatives. The Committee realizes that it is vital that the female voice is represented in the conception, planning and design of future infrastructure and climate resilient solutions and the webinars create a platform to stimulate discussions around this.<\/p>\n<p>The recording is available <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/pgb6sinAjkA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">in this page<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Welcome Message<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Yetunde Holloway<\/b>, WFEO Women in Engineering Committee Chair<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Opening Remarks<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Marlene Kanga<\/b>, President of WFEO 2017-2019<\/li>\n<li><b>Prof. Ke Gong<\/b>, WFEO President<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Speakers<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Dr. Jung Sun Kim<\/b>, President, International Network for Women Engineers and Scientists &#8211;
