How We Do It

Through membership contributions received (including donations by members), the Society selectively is able to do Research & Development on all the aspects of bamboo as per our objectives.

During the process of determining the best practices for local bamboo that is also appropriate for both the environment and communities, BambuSSA identifies appropriate locations for setting up specific bamboo-based community projects.

These research projects are then monitored, and all relevant bamboo data collected is then processed into Absolute data using scientific methods and must, of course, confirm the basic trend in every case.

By continually improving the accuracy of the information on the effectiveness and the full impact of projects for providing annually updated best practice guidelines.

This bamboo data, specific to Southern Africa, is then shared on appropriate platforms and in workshops offered to members and the public.
