Project Overview
The bamboo sector in Nepal is underdeveloped as compared to Southeast Asia and China but the sector possesses a high potential for growth by increasing bamboo plantations and promoting bamboo-based enterprises. GGGI, with close collaboration with government counterparts and private sectors, aims to unlock the potential of the bamboo sector in Nepal. The project has identified two areas of intervention (1) bamboo for landscape management (bamboo plantation) and (2) bamboo for growth (bamboo-based enterprise development. Bamboo plantation, as the first area of intervention, will cover (a) the fragile Chure Hill promoting landscape restoration and (b) private agricultural land to fulfill the demand for business purposes. Bamboo for growth, as the second intervention area, focuses on (a) modern bamboo-based furniture/handicraft and (b) bamboo-based fabric production.
