Later in September 2001, EAE issued a call for international cooperation in engineering education and research in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. The academy emphasized the need for engineers and researchers from different nations to work together to address global challenges.
 
EAE's call for cooperation extended to educational programs, joint research projects, and the exchange of knowledge and expertise. Engineers, educators, and researchers worldwide responded to this call, recognizing the importance of engineering in promoting peace, stability, and progress.
