The global bamboo market has been continually expanding in recent years, with an emerging focus on Latin America and its naturally growing bamboo. In the coastal region of Manabi province Ecuador, natural groves of guadua angustifolia bamboo-a strong, durable, woody bamboo, used most notably for construction purposes-are found on rural smallholder properties. These native outcroppings of bamboo are in the early stages of being targeted for extraction by local, regional, and global companies and governments promoting sustainable development. However, limited research exists regarding the reality on the ground and the current potential for bamboo in Latin America, much less Ecuador, to be harvested sustainably and in such a way that benefits local communities and economies. This research will be guided by the conceptual frameworks of political ecology with a focus on the political economy of Latin America and Ecuador and cultural geography of smallholders and bamboo within the landscape of Manabi. Using qualitative methods (i.e., semi-structured interviews, participant observation, fieldnotes) and analysis (i.e., transcription and coding of collected data), this research aims to examine the role of bamboo in coastal Ecuadorian livelihoods. Furthermore, research findings will serve to inform bamboo policy in Ecuador and Latin America.
