Something worth celebrating happened in Kakumiro! The Kyenyonga-Kikaada Hybrid Bridge is officially complete, and we had the honor of welcoming the Hon. Minister of Works @MoWT_Uganda to mark the moment alongside the community it was built to serve. This bridge is what government partnership looks like in practice. It's what happens when infrastructure decisions are made with communities, not just for them. 📽️: Incredible Media Agency Uganda

16 Mar 1973 @londonbridge_uk #London opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Many bridges stood before this one, built first of wood & then of stone, all of them connecting the City, the capital and #London’s communities.
