This workshop will explore the position of Humanitarian Engineering and engineers within Australia, particularly in relation to their practice and education within existing engineering frameworks. Through a Delphi method we invite workshop participants to openly discuss and debate the position of Humanitarian Engineering in Australia and draw a recommendation for next steps in professionalising Humanitarian Engineering. All participants will be asked to submit their initial ideas and thoughts on the position of humanitarian engineering via a pre-workshop survey. During the 2 hour workshop groups will discuss the main insights that arise from this pre-workshop survey After the workshop a summary of the discussion and recommendations will be prepared and circulated, participants can provide further comments and vote on approving the recommendation.
