As Botswana continues to advance its infrastructure and engineering capabilities, Zutari is proud to announce its participation in the upcoming Engineering Week 2025, which will take place from 3 to 7 March in Gaborone. This annual event, hosted by the Engineers Registration Board (ERB), is a vital platform that unites engineers and stakeholders from various sectors.

Human civilization worldwide is increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These gases, primarily carbon dioxide, are causing global warming and climate change.

From January 24 to 28, 2025, the Saisons District in the iconic La Défense area of Paris became a hub of innovation and collaboration as professionals from around the globe gathered for the Flash International Urban Workshop. With over 100 applicants vying for a spot, Ashleigh Florence-Brander, Principal Consultant: Urban Design, was among the 20 selected professionals from diverse backgrounds, including Brazil, Mexico, Vietnam, Luxembourg, Germany, the USA, South Africa, and France.

At the heart of modern engineering lies a critical imperative: sustainability is not a constraint, but a catalyst for innovation and long-term success. In sectors like mining, infrastructure, and energy, projects are increasingly defined by their ability to harmonise technical excellence with environmental stewardship and social responsibility. Yet too often, sustainability is relegated to compliance checklists —a reactive approach that jeopardises project outcomes.

Zutari Electrical Engineer Omaira Jajbhay had the honour of being selected as the only South African delegate to attend key energy and sustainability events in Abu Dhabi.

Zutari (Botswana) has been appointed as the Development Manager by the Government of the Republic of Botswana, as represented by the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, for the Mogoditshane-Gabane-Mmankgodi road project.

At Zutari, sustainability is not just a buzzword; it’s woven into the very fabric of our operations, guiding everything we do.

In a rapidly changing world, structural engineering faces new challenges that require innovative solutions and interdisciplinary collaboration.

Electrical Engineer Umeshan Pillay had the platform to present his paper at the 2024 IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering) PowerAfrica Conference on 09 October 2024

In a recent webinar held on 8 October 2024, industry professionals gathered to discuss an innovative approach to sustainable community growth known as Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD).

In a significant stride towards infrastructural development and road safety, Botswana witnessed the groundbreaking ceremony of the Mogoditshane-Gabane-Mmankgodi Road Project on 12 September 2024.

In celebrating our past, we also embrace the diverse cultural landscape that defines us. This is a reminder of how our unique differences unite us, creating an unparalleled bond of unity and strength.

Zutari, in partnership with CESA, held the 2024 Job Shadow Day over two days (3 and 4 July 2024). Our Tshwane and Cape Town offices hosted over 80 Grade 11 and 12 learners with an interest in engineering sciences. The programme fuelled their excitement and curiosity about how Zutari works. It further gave them a front-row seat into a day in the life of engineers entails.

Zutari Namibia held a webinar, Unlocking value on your digital journey, on Wednesday, 10 July 2024, from 10:30am to 11:00am SAST.

Zutari’s commitment to supporting future engineers was among the main attractions at the University of Pretoria (UP) Civil Engineering prize-giving event held on Monday, 15 April 2024

Dr James Cullis recently shared his insights on the climate crisis from a water resources perspective in an interview with eNCA Today.

Given the historical male dominance in the STEM industries, Zutari chose to celebrate IWD by highlighting female pioneers from various fields and profiles in Zutari. We asked them to share their experiences, talk about their careers and teams, and ultimately tell us what #InspireInclusion means to them as women leading the way for others. 

Zutari’s first digital technology expo was a huge success, seeing an unmatched turnout during the two events in our Cape Town and Tshwane offices.

Samista Jugwanth, Zutari Technical Director: Water, was recently a guest on the American-based Water Foresight Podcast, discussing the Future of WASH (Water, Sanitation & Hygiene) with host Dr. Matthew Klein.

A new synthesis report on Global Stocktake elements, published by the UN Climate Change, is expected to take centre stage at the 28th United Nations Climate Change Conference COP28 from 30 November to 12 December, predicts Dr Thapelo Letete, Director: Climate Change at Zutari. Letete will represent the leading consulting engineering and infrastructure advisory practice at an important framework session on climate transparency in developing countries on the final day of COP28.

Leading consulting engineering and infrastructure advisory firm Zutari not only had an independently adjudicated best oral and poster presentation at the 7th Young Water Professionals (YWP ) conference that took place from 8 to 10 November in Stellenbosch, it also had a significant involvement in organising the event itself.

We have been actively engaged in the YES initiative, and we are delighted to announce that this year, we’re taking a different approach by hosting our interns at Zutari.
