UNESCO and WFEO have now a +50-year history of fruitful cooperation. In 2018, a symposium was held at UNESCO to celebrate this anniversary.<\/p>\n<p>Engineering has always been a means to address UNESCO\u2019s priorities, and has become increasingly important in order to progress the Sustainable Development Goals. <\/p>\n<p>Amongst recent achievements, WFEO had initiated the creation of a <i><a href=\"https:\/\/worldengineeringday.net\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UNESCO World Engineering Day (WED) for Sustainable Development<\/a><\/i> (approved by UNESCO\u2019s 40th General Conference, 2019), and since then has been coordinating the celebration of this Day worldwide, on 4 March of each year, bringing considerable attention to the role of engineers and engineering in achieving the 17 SDGs. The celebration of the World Engineering Day has greatly increased the awareness of SDGs in engineering communities and mobilized engineers all over the world actively engaged in the implementation of SDGs in engineering practices.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wfeo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/27-10-2022-56-1536x1024-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33935\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wfeo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/27-10-2022-56-1536x1024-1.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.wfeo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/27-10-2022-56-1536x1024-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wfeo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/27-10-2022-56-1536x1024-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.wfeo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/27-10-2022-56-1536x1024-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nIn 2021, WFEO worked closely with UNESCO and made significant contributions to the second edition of UNESCO\u2019s Engineering Report, <i>Engineering for Sustainable Development: Delivering on the Sustainable Development Goals<\/i>, officially launched on 4 March 2021, in the context of accelerating actions to deliver on the Sustainable Development Goals.
