Bridges to Prosperity

Bridges to Prosperity (B2P) works with isolated communities to build trail bridges over impassable rivers, and create lasting connections to essential services and opportunities.

Bridges to Prosperity report

Mission

B2P’s mission is to build bridges to better lives in rural communities, ultimately striving for a future where poverty caused by rural isolation no longer exists.

Background

Rural isolation perpetuates poverty, hindering access to vital services and opportunities. B2P responds by creating rural access briefs to highlight the significance of safe access in rural areas. These briefs serve as engaging summaries of how trail bridges and other rural transportation infrastructure can catalyze significant change. You can contribute to solving the problem of rural isolation by donating or sharing these findings with your network.

My approach

I crafted an infographic using Tableau to visualize B2P’s impact, illustrating how trail bridges connect isolated communities to essential services. My work was recognized with a Community Award, showcasing the effectiveness of the visualizations. Utilizing tools such as PowerPoint, Excel, Tableau, and Tableau Prep, I ensured the dashboards were suitable for both print and digital formats, as requested by B2P.

How it was used

The rural access briefs and dashboards are used as print and digital collateral to engage strategic partners and stakeholders, including national governments and funding agencies. By disseminating this information, B2P aims to garner support and funding for their initiatives.

Feedback & testimonials

My viz was chosen for the community award for this project, and I was invited to speak at a Tableau User Group after the leader saw my visualization online.
