Not too long ago I read a story in the paper about the Taiwan Embassy being involved in a bamboo proyect in guatemala to teach locals the construction of different things including houses using bamboo. So if you google" Bambu en Guatemala" you'
ll get several links including the official project's website http://bambu.gt/contactenos with all kinds of information about the project. And how to contact them Good luck

Thanks for the response. Read most of the articles out there on homes done for various charities or other reasons. Research is now finding locals that have actually done the work before.
Any help in that direction would be great.
