The International Bamboo and Rattan Organisation (INBAR) has opened a Bamboo Common Production Training Centre (CPTC) at Obogu in the Asante-Akim South District, to provide technical/ capacity building support for the artisans.
The CPTC concept, an innovative approach to ensuring the availability of processing machines and equipment for use by bamboo artisans, is being implemented under the Inter-Africa Smallholder Livelihood Development Programme by the INBAR.
