Mission 1) to create a global society of practitioners, researchers, experts and institutions from developing and developed economies within the field of Problem Based and Project Based Learning (PBL) in Engineering and Science Education and Sustainability;
2) to establish international research and doctoral training on PBL and sustainability in Engineering and Science Education;
3) to provide global formal education and training for academic staff and students and to disseminate and exchange knowledge and support among society members in terms of how to change engineering and science education for sustainable development at the national, regional and international levels;
4) outreach to institutions and schools for attracting students to engineering and science and give HE institutions and governments open access to a body of knowledge, education, training and other resources in order to facilitate PBL and Sustainability in Engineering and Science Education.
