As a first step in defining a Southeast Asia-wide agenda for rattan-based development, the INBAR with its partners held a workshop in June 2015. This consultation brought together key stakeholders in the rattan development community to discuss and reach a common understanding of Asia region-wide issues and challenges to rattan-based development. Participants discussed the framework needed to address them. The nine participating countries shared experiences and ideas, and agreed on a framework for sustainable Southeast Asia-wide rattan development.
