Education is the foundation of a more promising future, but for many children in rural areas, the journey to school is anything but simple. It's often dangerous, unpredictable, and, at times, impossible. Our mission aims to connect the next generation to critical resources, empowering them to learn, dream, and contribute to a better world. On International Day of Education, we invite you to celebrate with us by watching The Connector, a film highlighting the life-changing effects of safe access. 👉 Watch now: 📷: Robb Hohmann

As we approach International Day of Education, we’re reflecting on the journey of our corporate partner, SYSTRA, who worked alongside the Baraje community and our team in Rwanda to complete the stunning 68m Baraje-Rubyiro suspension bridge. This build marked a powerful comeback as the first traveling team after the Marburg outbreak and the last build of 2024. During a school visit, they introduced Engineering4Kids, an innovative software translated into Kinyarwanda, sparking excitement and curiosity among students. It’s inspiring to see the impact of connecting young minds to the possibilities of STEM! When we invest in education, we invest in a brighter future.

Join us at the @ADB_HQ Green Roads Webinar! Our team will present "Digital Tools for Rural Transport Planning & Waterway Mapping," exploring how innovative machine-learning tools are closing data gaps to improve rural transport connectivity. Don’t miss this opportunity to see how technology can transform access for marginalized communities. 👉Register now: #ADBGreenRoads #TrailBlazingTech #RuralAccessInnovation
