Sustainability

ASME Foundation India (AFI) exists to leverage the power of engineering to benefit humanity. ASME has a long and proud history of convening leaders of all kinds to take on society’s biggest and most technical challenges—from boiler safety, to nuclear fission and the space race. Today, humanity is facing one of its largest challenges ever: climate change.

The scale and complexity of this challenge are unprecedented. A changing climate threatens the stability and sustainability of economies, ecosystems, and communities globally, and it claims a role in nearly every problem engineers set out to solve.

ASME Foundation India is leveraging its leadership in engineering education, innovation and technology, student/workforce development, and policy to spur action across all dimensions to address this urgent global challenge.
