Young Professionals Climate and Sustainable Initiatives Group
Mission: Our mission also extends beyond IEEE, reaching out to individuals from diverse backgrounds and organizations aiming to foster collaboration and innovation in addressing pressing global challenges related to climate and sustainable technology. By establishing a vibrant community hub in the Jordan Section, our local group serves as a catalyst for impactful action. We plan to amplify the voices of young professionals in global discussions on climate resilience and sustainable technology. Through tangible initiatives, we contribute to positive environmental outcomes on both local and global scales. Partnering with local universities, industries, NGOs, international stakeholders, and governmental agencies, we harness the collective expertise and passion of our members. Therefore, this YP local group will allow the local YP volunteers to gain wide exposure to leadership, technical, and professional level volunteering while being exposed to the global conversation on critical topics.
