University Chapters

Currently EWBNZ has two University chapters operating through the University of Canterbury and the University of Auckland. These were founded independently but are now working in conjunction to develop EWBNZ as a national NGO, including regional professional chapters.

EWBNZ is looking for key student, faculty and professional members to be involved in the organisation, identification and implementation of projects and initiatives that come under its three areas of activity: Projects, Awareness, and Education.
