Executive Summary:

This brochure explores the importance of Engineers' Day as a celebration of engineers and their outstanding contributions to society and sustainable development. Since its launch in Switzerland in 2018, Engineers' Day has grown into a global initiative that takes place annually on 4 March. This celebration not only recognises the creative work and technical innovations of engineers, but also emphasises their crucial role in tackling global challenges such as climate change, infrastructure development and resource management. This brochure highlights how Engineers' Day and its partnerships promote and raise the profile of the engineering profession. Ultimately, we strive to create an awareness that recognises the engineering professions as an essential driver of progress and change in our world.

Introduction:

Engineers are the architects of our modern world. Their creative solutions and technical innovations shape our cities, drive industry forward and shape the future of our society. Despite their crucial role, engineering professions often remain in the shadow of other professional fields. Engineers' Day was created to close this gap and recognise the importance of engineering.

Engineers' Day is an annual celebration that has taken place on 4 March every year since its launch in Switzerland in 2018 and has become increasingly important worldwide since 2020. This initiative serves to recognise the outstanding contributions of engineers to society and sustainable development. In parallel, the World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development was introduced by the UN/ UNESCO to emphasise the role of engineering in addressing global challenges such as climate change, infrastructure development and resource management worldwide.

Over the years, Engineers' Day and World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development have received increasing support from governments, businesses and educational institutions around the world. This support reflects the growing awareness of the importance of engineers and their indispensable role in creating a sustainable future. Through targeted partnerships and initiatives, Engineers' Day aims to nurture talent, strengthen diversity in the engineering professions and drive innovation that improves our lives.
