Background
� IDC completed high level bamboo value chain opportunities study in 2012 – main objective to establish the potential and key success elements for the development of a industry in SA
� One of the key conclusions and recommendations of the study was to establish recommendations of the study was to establish a Bamboo industry body and the development of a Bamboo Industry Development Plan
� First South African Bamboo Symposium in East London in August 2011
� A Bamboo Interim Steering Committee appointed at the Symposium with a mandate to steer the establishment of a Bamboo industry body and the development of a BIDP
What is the rationale for a BIDP?
� History shows that most of the successful agricultural and agri-processing industries organised themselves in an industry organisation to attend to issues which is important for most or all of the role-players which cannot efficiently be addressed by individual role-players in the value chain (e.g. information, research, negotiations with chain (e.g. information, research, negotiations with government, etc.)
� HOWEVER, having a industry body without a roadmap / strategy / plan to take the industry forward does not make sense – what do we want to do – what is our common vision for a South African Bamboo Industry? – How do we achieve this?
� Therefore the need for BIDP for the proposed organization - National Bamboo Association of South Africa (NBASA)

What now?� We need to get the mandate from Bamboo stakeholders to continue to develop the strategy
� Not a theoretical exercise – we need a tangible plan to go ahead
� The management of NBASA must be in a position tot start implementing the BIDP as soon as funding is available
� Communication with stakeholders to develop common vision and mission
� Communication with stakeholders to develop common vision and mission
� We first need to prioritise key strategies based on importance for now – see hand-out in your bags
� Development of sub-strategies and actions – communicate with stakeholders
� Finally we need more prioritisation of sub-strategies and actions depending on the availability of funding – the BIDP can also be used to source funding from several potential funders
