These bridges are more than a structure, they are lifelines connecting communities to vital resources. So far, B2P has built more than 500 bridges, improving the lives of 1 million worldwide. The milestone 500<sup>th<\/sup> bridge was inaugurated during AU!&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The partnership between Bridges to Prosperity and the Autodesk Foundation, showcased in the AU Exhibit Hall, is a testament to what can be achieved when technological innovation meets a human-centered approach to infrastructure. The 12,000+ AU attendees had the unique opportunity to witness firsthand the positive change brought about by B2P\u2019s work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow aligncenter\"

bridges. The map featured key impact stats, including the 30% increase in overall household earnings attributed to the construction of a B2P trail bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bridge building tools like rebar benders were on display to give attendees a hands-on feel of the construction process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visitors also journeyed virtually with B2P through a <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/X81oTSCf_88?si=QKuVr_hfHDnhVdjc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">video<\/a> that offered a glimpse of B2P\u2019s work through the eyes of Etienne Mutebutsi, a B2P engineer and needs assessment manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also on display was B2P\u2019s new <a href=\"https:\/\/map.fikamap.com\/\">Fika Map<\/a>\u2014named after the Swahili word <em>fika<\/em>, which translates to \u201carrive\u201d\u2014a cloud-based platform that combines remote sensing data, machine learning algorithms, and demographic insights to make better decisions faster about bridge placement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout AU, attendees generously donated to Bridges to Prosperity, resulting in more than $50,000 in donations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Deep partnership: A bedrock for meaningful impact storytelling<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bridges to Prosperity at AU 2023: The Design &amp; Make Conference\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1A7p-dPMQdg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen style=\"aspect-ratio:500 \/ 375;width:100%;height:auto;\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Bridges to Prosperity Global Advocacy and Partnerships Director Eniola Mafe-Abaga provides a glimpse into the organization&rsquo;s impact from the AU 2023 Exhibit Hall.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The depth and variety of storytelling shown at AU is a testament to the longstanding partnership between B2P and the Autodesk Foundation.
