Join us for the official launch of the IEEE NSW Special Interest Group on Humanitarian Technology (SIGHT).
SIGHT is a global network of volunteers who partner with underserved communities and local organisations to leverage technology for sustainable development. Membership is open to everyone — IEEE membership is not required — and this launch is about bringing NSW's humanitarian engineering community together, including partners like Engineers Without Borders.
Hosted by the EWB student chapter at UNSW, the evening features an introduction to IEEE Humanitarian Technologies and SIGHT, short impact presentations from people applying technology for good, a speaker Q&A, and an open discussion to shape our first projects and events — followed by time to network over refreshments.
Whether you're an engineer, student, researcher, or work in the community sector, come along to meet like-minded people and help launch humanitarian technology in NSW. Free to attend, in person at UNSW and online via livestream.
