  • L'Organisation mondiale du bambou (WBO, acronyme de World Bamboo Organization), fondée à l'origine sous le nom de International Bamboo Association (IBA, Association internationale du bambou), sur l'idée d'un organe international de coordination pour les praticiens des bambous, est née de discussions à l'Atelier international sur le bambou (International Bamboo Workshop) à Chiang Mai (Thaïlande) en 1991. L'IBA a ensuite été créée au Congrès international du bambou en 1992 au Japon. Jusqu'en 1998, l'IBA était la plate-forme de coordination des spécialistes du bambou du monde entier. Sa principale mission était d'organiser le Congrès et l'Atelier international du bambou. La réunion de ces deux rassemblements distincts est aujourd'hui appelée « Congrès mondial des bambous » et a conduit à la renaissance de l'IBA sous le nom d'« Organisation mondiale du bambou ». La WBO a été légalement constituée en 2005 aux États-Unis par la directrice générale, Susanne Lucas, sous le statut d'une association professionnelle exonérée d'impôts.Susanne Lucas occupe actuellement le poste de directrice exécutive, ambassadrice de la WBO et est l'auteure de Bamboo. Kamesh Salam (Assam, Inde) a été président de 2007 à 2009. Michel Abadie (Paris, France), qui lui a succédé en 2010, est le président actuel. Les membres fondateurs de la WBO sont Susanne Lucas(États-Unis), I.V. Ramanuja Rao (Inde), Karina Quintans (États-Unis), David Flanagan (États-Unis), Carmelita Bersalona (Philippines), Amin Samuel Zacca (Ghana), Jorge Campos (Chili), Victor Brias (Belgique). Un conseil honoraire, ayant un rôle de conseil et d'expertise professionnelle, a été créé en 2005 pour soutenir la WBO. Le Conseil honoraire a évolué et, pour mieux refléter la structure horizontale de ses collaborations, a pris le nom d'« Ambassades du monde du bambou ». (fr)
