1/ How 9 stone-arch bridges reconnected communities across @MusanzeDistrict and picked up a national award along the way. A @LODARwanda achievement.

[LODA | Rwanda @LODARwanda]

4/ Impact: farmers can now move their produce to market without being cut off by streams and ravines, cutting travel time and reducing post-harvest losses along the way.
The bridges weren't just built for the community, they were partly built by it. An estimated 480 jobs created.
