“The success of such projects in African countries and other developing countries has inspired us to replicate such models in India and boost conservation though ecology, economy and employment,” said Kamesh Salam, founder and executive director of the South Asia Bamboo Foundation (SABF).

The project, a collaborative effort of the SABF and the Manipur Cycle Club (MCC), aims at generating employment and nurturing the environment.
