The two previous workshops were both very successful. They had great impact on developing countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Concerned government departments, research institutes and enterprises in these countries are now taking action to develop bamboo as well as rattan in their own countries or regions. They require that China provide training on specialized bamboo processing technologies. The most desired training is on bamboo handicraft techniques, including small machinery and their operational techniques.
China is one of the world s main producers of small bamboo processing machines.
Its highly efficient and practical machines and tools attract wide interests from developing countries. Improve the efficiency of bamboo handicraft production by introducing small, high-efficient and practical bamboo processing machines to part of the handicraft processes. Through visits to China s bamboo industry, help participants to realize the great potentiality of bamboo industrial products other than handicrafts. Programs Participants will register on October 7-8, the departure date will be October 19 . This training workshop will combine courses with field visits and operational practices.
