Our work consists of two core types of engagement: EWB Projects and EWB Response. These two modalities have been developed to enable effective responses to different needs, ranging from long-term project management to acute crisis response.
WHAT IS EWB PROJECTS?
EWB Projects include long-term development efforts that follow a structured project cycle. The projects go through phases such as needs analysis, project development, fundraising, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. These projects are typically strongly community-based, partner-led and have a solid capacity-building component.
The project courses typically last 1.5 to 3 years and require a long-term voluntary commitment. However, there are certain challenges, such as a longer response time and low flexibility. This modality is suitable for situations where there is time and space to build capacities and create sustainable solutions in close collaboration with local partners.
WHAT IS EWB RESPONSE?
EWB Response is a flexible and reactive modality that focuses on short-term interventions with high broadcast frequency. The effort is designed to respond quickly to urgent needs and crisis situations with funding from pre-allocated funds. This allows for short-term missions with rapid mobilization of volunteers, typically lasting up to six months. The support is provided pro bono to smaller recipients, while larger recipients can receive support on a reimbursement basis.
This modality enables both training efforts, advice and emergency preparedness, which makes it ideal for situations where rapid technical assistance and advice across sectors is needed. IUG Respons is suitable for supplementing larger humanitarian programs and ensuring that technical solutions are implemented and maintained correctly.

Vintersikring af National University of Shipbuilding
Læs mere
Universitet, der to gange er blevet ramt af missiler, er særligt udsat for forfald i de kolde vintermåneder. For at forhindre yderligere skader inspicerede vores ingeniørteam bygningen og udarbejdede anbefalinger til vintersikring. Takket være indsatsen fra universitetet og lokale håndværkere blev store dele af bygningerne sikret mod kulde og vejrlig, indtil den egentlige genopbygning kan begynde.

I Mykolaiv står borgerne fortsat over for en alvorlig drikkevandskrise med ustabile og forurenede vandforsyninger. Vores frivillige ingeniører udfører forundersøgelser, indsamler vandprøver og rådgiver i samarbejde med Danish Red Cross in Ukraine om løsninger som nye vandboringer og forbedret vandkvalitet. Indsatsen er afgørende for at sikre adgang til rent vand og bedre levevilkår for lokalbefolkningen.

Langt ude på landet i by kaldet Dukono er en skole blevet ødelagt i en kraftig storm. For at genopbygge skolen rejste vores ingeniørteam dybt ind i junglen og assisterede landsbyen med at udarbejde en plan for konstruktionen. Takket være indsatsen fra de frivillige og lokale håndværkere er konstruktionen godt undervejs.

I Mykolaiv er en lokal skole blevet ramt af missiler og lokalbefolkningen tør ikke sende sine børn i skole. Vores frivillige ingeniører har vurderet bygningens tilstand og givet anbefalinger til hvilke dele der kan bruges og hvilke der bør rives ned. Indsatsen er afgørende for at lokalbefolkningen føler sig trygge ved at sende deres børn i skole.
