Please respond if you are able to attend. This will be one of our last two meetings until the new academic year. Both of the topics addressed will be important for you to conceptualize and design development projects.

This includes research, design, adaptation, and field-testing of appropriate technologies and services that have strong potential to become scalable solutions for energy access, healthcare, water and sanitation, labor-saving innovations, and disaster/humanitarian response. The next I2D Lab meeting of this semester is scheduled for Wednesday April 20th at 12:00-1:30pm in WANG 2501 with the following agenda: 12:00pm Announcements (Anne Dare is back!) - funding opportunities, upcoming campus visitors and events, etc. 12:15pm Andrea Mazzurco, Design methods to facilitate community participation in engineering for international development 12:45pm Gary Burniske, How the logical framework helps you to design your development project 1:15pm Round-the-table updates This semester, we will also be offering the opportunity to join I2D Lab meetings remotely via WebEx. If you would like to join via this option, please let me know and I will send a connection link. The goal of these meetings is to learn more about engineering faculty interests and ongoing projects in global sustainable development, look for potential research collaborations, and to network with partners on campus to target new funding/partnership opportunities. Please feel free to share this announcement with interested colleagues or graduate students. We ask that you RSVP at gep@purdue.edu<mailto:gep@purdue.edu> to this, and subsequent meetings so that we can obtain a count for lunch. If you do not RSVP, you will not receive lunch. Lunch starts at 11:30. Please RSVP by noon, Monday April 18th so Tami is able to place the lunch order. The meeting schedule for remainder of the semester follows. If you are interested in sharing your own project in an upcoming meeting, please let us know. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ALL MEETINGS ARE 12:00-1:30PM IN WANG 2501 THURDSDAY, MAY 5 Tahira Reid, SOAP in Ethiopia To be announced Andrea Burniske Program Manager, i2D Lab Global Engineering Programs 4th Floor, Wang Hall Purdue University West Lafayette, IN Ph: 765.496.3533 Skype: AndreaLaBurniske
