<![CDATA[The use of bamboo for construction and various products is increasing as part of an environmentally friendly lifestyle. This effort needs to be supported by bamboo cultivation and strong institutions. This study aims to identify and analyze the institutions that play a role in the development of bamboo agroforestry. The research was conducted from 2016 to 2021 in West Java. Data were collected through interviews with actors related to bamboo development, meetings, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), observation and documentation. The data were analyzed and presented descriptively. The results show that the supporting institutions of bamboo development consist of national institutions and local institutions. National institutions include the Ministry of National Development Planning, Ministry of Environment and Forestry, Indonesian Institute of Sciences, Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR), Academy of Bambu Nusantara, Research Center for Bamboo Udayana University, and PT Charta Putra Indonesia.
