Bamboo Labs

with a population of nearly five million, at an increasing rate of 3.8% per year, addis ababa is one of the fastest growing metropoles in africa. confronted by accelerating rural migration and rapid urbanisation, addis ababa cannot respond to the rising mobility demands of a growing population, which has led to an increase in economic and social inequality. bamboo labs is a social enterprise that is working on equitable, safe and green mobility across addis ababa. having started as a venture that created wheelchairs framed entirely out of bamboo, bamboo labs has since expanded mobility options by offering bamboo bicycles to further its measurable impact on the united nations sustainable development goals.
