Hilf mit, den Matutuíne Bamboo Park zum Leben zu erwecken!

Imagine transforming 16 hectares of degraded land in Mozambique into a thriving bamboo forest that empowers local communities, promotes biodiversity, and protects against the escalating impacts of climate change. The Matutuíne Bamboo Park is a groundbreaking initiative aiming to renew the ecosystem of the Matutuine District -an area deeply affected by deforestation and extraction of sand for construction -  by creating a bamboo forest that will anchor the soil, prevent flooding, create jobs, and build community resilience to future climate disasters. This is especially important for Mozambique, a country increasingly vulnerable to the escalating impacts of climate change, including more intense cyclones, prolonged droughts, and severe flooding.

This project began 12 years ago with a vision to unlock bamboo’s immense potential as a sustainable resource for Mozambique. Through education and advocacy, we demonstrated how bamboo can transform lives and landscapes. As a result, the Maputo Conservation Area allocated 16 hectares of degraded land for restoration—a monumental step toward making the Matutuíne Bamboo Park a reality.

Why Bamboo?

Bamboo’s rapid growth and versatility make it a unique solution to both environmental and socio-economic challenges. In addition to restoring land and stabilizing soil, bamboo offers Mozambicans a sustainable resource for emergency shelter, erosion protection, and a foundation for building resilient infrastructure. The Matutuine Bamboo Park will also serve as an education and research center for exploring bamboo’s potential to combat climate risks and promote economic stability.
