Discussion and Conclusion
Bamboo Value-Chain DevelopmentBamboo provides enormous opportunities for developing a Inclusive, sustainable and green value-chain.Possibility for increasing income opportunities, creating jobs and business opportunities.Various stakeholders to participate and benefit from the value-chain: Women, youth, small holder farmer, micro, small and medium scale enterprises (MSME), Large scale enterprises, etc
Growing Primary Processing --- Secondary processing lead enterprises ---- consumers
Existing Scenario in Cameroon..Incomplete information and knowledge on existing bamboo resources and possible products. Lack on awareness and potential of bamboo.Lack of mechanisms for input supply, market access, technology and product development, organisation and management, services, and financial constraints
Enhance benefits from living bamboo Protection Ecosystem services
Enabling HH to benefit from the Watershed and vice versaBamboo - A source of income round the year.Increase the value of living bamboo and not just cut bambooThe more valuable something is, monetarily or emotionally, the more it will be protected and cared for.

Bamboo Agro-forestry
Research on bamboo inter-cropping(G.B. Pant University, India Dr. Rajesh Kaushal; Dr. R. L. Banik) shows inter-cropping can be suitably adopted)
Small Scale PlantingFarm Boundary Planting: Function as wind breaks, and contribute to soil stabilization.Homestead or backyard planting: Wind Breaks and meet the household needs food, energy and fodder.Terrace planting: Soil stabilization, soil erosion control, etc. Bambusa multiplex is a suitable species for terracing.

Bamboo Integration: Benefits and usesAgricultural applications: Props, tools and implements.Construction and HousingFood Bamboo ShootsFodder and Feed: Bamboo leaves.Energy: Household energyEnvironmental Benefits

Theme
Short Term:Replicating the Traditional Value-ChainsTraditional bamboo value-chains in basketry, furniture and household products are in operation across Africa and Asia. Low valued High Volume Products; Market Demand.South-South Technology Transfer with up gradation and adaptation.

Mid Term and Long Term: Establish Model Common Production and Treatment EnterpriseBamboo products - seen as cheap and temporary.Longer service life of bamboo products and applications = increased valueThe guarantee of a durable quality product improves market image and results in higher price realization It also enables application of better technologies and products
Common Production and Training CentersFor Demonstration, training and Business incubation.CPTCs to provide linkages and support on design, prototyping, marketing, and BDS, and stocking inputs, tools, finishes and other materials needed by the micro and small enterprises. CPTCs would produce treated poles, slats, slivers, and sticks as bamboo commodities to enable production of quality products in quantity and at competitive prices by enterprises for fisheries, apiculture, packaging, furniture, construction, thereby creating livelihood opportunities.

Government Institutional market
Bamboo School Desk
In Ghana, school desks from bamboo allowed in addition to wood ones in 2008
Product Policy Change: Philippines (2010)Bamboo school desks included in policy; previously only hardwood desks allowedSchool desks institutional market policy - 25% reserved
