URGENT CALL TO ACTION: JOIN US TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES THROUGH ENGINEERING ADVOCACY

As passionate female engineers, this situation should deeply concern us, as we are indirectly connected to these communities. Many of our domestic staff, such as cooks and drivers, reside in these areas, and the pollution affects all of us through the air we share.

We need to emphasize the importance of cleaning their waterways to improve their living conditions and prevent further health risks. I urge you all to join us in large numbers this Saturday. Our presence and advocacy can make a meaningful impact on these communities and help drive necessary change.
