Through powerful storytelling, Fleming says the campaign will help to elevate the profile of engineers, and Engineers Australia as a recognisable and trusted representative of the engineering profession.
“It will connect the average Australian with the power and potential of engineering, show how great engineering makes people feel, and fuel greater respect for engineering and the aspiration to be an engineer,” he says.
“It’s another step in Engineers Australia and our profession making a proactive contribution to creating the world we want to live in.”
Advancing society
Jolic says she hopes the campaign will galvanise all engineers to join Engineers Australia and be part of the movement to create safe, sustainable, healthy and prosperous societies. The campaign tagline is “Engineering. Making life happen.”
“Great engineering advances society and Engineers Australia is the home of all engineers,” says Jolic.
“Engineers have a unique way of seeing the world. They are the ones who can creatively solve the challenges of today and tomorrow. Because of them, nothing is impossible — it just hasn’t been done yet. This is what we want all Australians to know.”
