In its 12 years of evolution, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has transformed global development. From the high-speed Jakarta-Bandung Railway in Indonesia to pivotal port projects in Africa, the BRI has built bridges that unite cultures and economies.
Over 150 countries and 30 international organizations have joined hands in more than 3,000 projects. This collaborative model, founded on extensive consultation, joint contribution, and shared benefits, empowers nations to strengthen both infrastructure and community resilience.
Now stepping into its second dynamic decade, the initiative pioneers new frontiers with the Green Silk Road and the Digital Silk Road. These transformative endeavors champion eco-friendly practices and digital innovation, ensuring progress aligns with both environmental and social needs. 🌱💻
By blending grand infrastructure projects with grassroots initiatives—ranging from vocational training to local agricultural programs—the BRI inspires a future of sustainable growth and global connectivity. When we build together, everyone thrives! 🤝
