Arch bridges manage compression, suspension bridges span long distances and concrete box-girder bridges prioritise stability and load efficiency. This bridge uses the box-girder design, making it a practical choice for crossing the wide, fast-moving Mekong River.Desktop Version

An estimated 50,000 to 70,000 MAP species are harvested worldwide, with 70–95% of people in many developing countries relying on them for primary health care. Yet many of these plants face growing threats from habitat loss, overharvesting and illegal trade, making sustainable use essential for their future.Desktop Version

Lake Tanganyika, Africa
Lake Tanganyika, Africa
Water has always shaped human survival, but moments come when simply flowing along is no longer enough—we have to protect the systems that carry us forward. Few places capture that urgency like Lake Tanganyika, set deep within the Great Rift Valley of eastern Africa. Seen from space, it stretches like a narrow ribbon about 676 kilometres long, linking Tanzania, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Zambia. At the shoreline, it"s a 10-million-year-old rift basin, formed as the Earth"s crust slowly pulled apart.Desktop Version
