Bamboo Rising: World Bamboo Organization Unites Global Momentum for a Greener Future

September 28, 2025

Celebrating record growth and calling on partners worldwide to scale bamboo solutions for people, nature, and the planet

Bamboo is more than a plant, it is a solution. From climate resilience and biodiversity conservation to sustainable livelihoods and circular economies, bamboo offers nature-based answers to some of the most urgent challenges of our time. Today, the World Bamboo Organization (WBO) proudly announces the release of its 2025 Annual Partners Report, marking a year of unprecedented growth, global engagement, and transformative impact.


Over the past year, WBO’s mission to champion bamboo as a cornerstone of sustainability has resonated around the world. Our platforms have welcomed more than 37,000 visitors, our digital community has grown to over 65,000 members, and our content has reached audiences with over 250,000 total views. This expanding reach reflects the growing recognition of bamboo’s critical role in addressing climate change, restoring ecosystems, and building resilient communities.


Driving Global Action Through Collaboration

WBO’s momentum this year was driven by dynamic collaboration with partners and stakeholders across continents. From hands-on workshops and policy dialogues to global awareness campaigns, our initiatives connected thousands of people to the transformative potential of bamboo.


To meet the rising global demand for knowledge and innovation, WBO also launched eight specialized Working Groups and established a pioneering Science & Technology Hub, an international platform advancing research, knowledge-sharing, and solutions across the entire bamboo value chain.

“This year’s growth is not just about numbers, it’s about momentum,” said Susanne Lucas, Executive Director of the World Bamboo Organization. “Every new partner, every shared story, and every bamboo project represents a step toward a future where sustainability is not an aspiration, but a reality. Together, we are demonstrating that bamboo can power real solutions for people and the planet.”

A Call to Global Partners

As we look ahead, WBO reaffirms its commitment to scaling impact and expanding partnerships that turn vision into action. We invite governments, private sector leaders, philanthropic organizations, civil society groups, and research institutions to join us in accelerating bamboo solutions worldwide. Together, we can restore degraded landscapes, support sustainable livelihoods, and create a regenerative future for generations to come.
