Bridges To Prosperity Is Bridging Isolated Communities To A Brighter Future
#455 Great.com Talks With… Bridges To Prosperity
Without proper transportation infrastructure, communities are not able to access the world at large reliably. As a result, these small, isolated towns are not able to acquire better healthcare, education or economic opportunities. Stagnation and poverty happens, and community members suffer as a result. In this episode, we talk with Brandy Bertram from Bridges to Prosperity about building trail bridges in these small pockets of isolated and impoverished lands.
Poverty Caused By Rural Isolation Is Solved By Bridges
Rural isolation is one of the less talked about problems in smaller communities living on the edge of civilization, but is perhaps one of the most important topics in development. 1 billion people in the world still do not have access to modern healthcare, education or work and trade opportunities that we enjoy, and as a result, fall prey to disease, malnutrition and lack of education that can assist with creating a better future. As is stated on the Bridges to Prosperity website, ““Rural isolation is a root cause of poverty; connection is the foundation for opportunity.”. Bertram explains that an infrastructure that bridges the gap safely & reliably between these small communities to resource-rich cities and towns helps people develop their towns.
