The
African nation of Ethiopia is where Bridges to Prosperity
started in 2001. In Ethiopia there is a need for some 15,000 footbridges
to help empower the people who live there. The program focuses on training
Ethiopians on bridge construction sites. A budding bridge industry has
been built here. The program plans to privatize in the year 2010. In Ethiopia
the Helvetas bridge coordinator is Mebratu Abebaw.
