The objective of the CREATE in Water and Sanitation for Low-resource Contexts is to upskill the next generation of HQPs within a interdisciplinary immersive and experiential training environment to acquire the necessary competencies to co-engineer fit-for-purpose solutions to multifaceted problems set in low resource contexts. In doing so, we will collaboratively research solutions for sustainable water and sanitation services to improve livelihoods for the poorest and most marginalised members of our community both domestically and globally. This will result in HQP trained in a suite of technical and professional skills in high demand in the Canadian environmental sector. This CREATE program will consolidate expertise in water and sanitation for low-resource contexts that is currently dispersed across 8 Canadian universities (UVic, UBC, SFU, Western, Guelph, Toronto, Carleton, and Laval). Participating institutions have made substantial financial contributions (37 % of total) to this CREATE. This program will train the next generation of engineers and scientists to have the knowledge (heads), skills (hands), and mindset (hearts) needed to tackle water and sanitation challenges which is one of greatest issues of historic and global inequity.

在水和卫生环境中创造的目的是在跨学科的沉浸式和体验式培训环境中提高下一代HQP，以获取必要的能力，以使工程师拟合解决方案，以拟合拟合的解决方案，从低资源上下文。通过这样做，我们将为可持续水和卫生服务提供协作研究解决方案，以在国内和全球范围内改善我们社区中最贫穷，最边缘化的成员的生计。这将导致HQP在加拿大环境部门的高需求中培训了一系列技术和专业技能。该创建计划将巩固低资源环境中的水和卫生专业知识，目前在加拿大的8所大学（UVIC，UBC，SFU，Western，Guelph，Guelph，Toronto，Toronto，Carleton和Laval）分散了。参与的机构为此做出了大量财务贡献（总计37％）。该计划将培训下一代工程师和科学家，以了解应对水和卫生挑战所需的知识，技能（手）和心态（心灵），这是历史和全球不平等的最大问题之一。
