Supporting humanitarian response
Arup has been supporting medical humanitarian NGO, Médecins Sans Frontiers (MSF) since 2012. MSF is recognised worldwide for its contribution of health and medical services in conflict zones and in countries facing endemic diseases. Arup members provide pro-bono support through their technical engineering, design, and sustainable development expertise, as well as broader (non-technical) professional skills, to enable MSF doctors and clinicians to work safely and with confidence so their focus can remain on supporting those most in need.
“Humanitarianism implies a social conscience, a wish to do socially useful work, and to join hands with others fighting for the same values. ”
Sir Ove Arup Founder
Designing tools to enable sustainable development
As designers, engineers and technical specialists, we bring a breadth of problem solving creativity to community challenges. In consultation with communities and development organisations, we create products and approaches that address common, shared issues like access to potable water and sanitation or how to cope with the rising temperatures caused by climate change.
