Academics Without Borders – Partners in Strengthening Engineering Research and Education

Academics Without Borders Academics Without Borders (AWB) works with post-secondary institutions in low- and middle- income countries to increase and improve their capacity to educate the professionals and leaders they need. Stemming from a proposal that reflects the most pressing needs and priorities of a partner institution, AWB recruits Canadian and international volunteer academics and/or professional staff to collaborate on projects with those partners.
