Introducing the Bambulance, the first Bamboo Emercency Medical Transportation Device.
Every day in Africa and the developing world, thousands of people suffering from HIV/AIDS, malaria and other serious illnesses and injuries, die because they have no access to emergency and general healthcare services. The difference between life and death often comes down to a pair of wheels.
Bambulance is a low-cost, practical and sustainable solution to this medical transportation crisis.
Soon, life-saving medical care will be only a bike-ride away.

o2lu.org is the Luxembourg Liaison for the o2 global network for sustainable design.
o2 Luxembourg is a non-profit association promoting sustainable design and architecture. We act as a design consultancy for community development, organize awareness workshops in the fields of industrial design, graphic design, architecture, fashion & textile design and sustainable strategies.
o2 Luxembourg acts as an ambassador for green thinking and ecological awareness towards the consumer as well as industry.
We are designers and architects. We use the creative design process to solve problems of any proportion.
o2 started in Milan, Italy in 1988.
Today, o2 has over 1600 members in over 70 countries worldwide.
The o2 Luxembourg website is mainly an english language website to reach a wider audience, intended both as starting point for people investigating sustainable design and a source of information and inspiration for active o2s, keeping them connected and informed of the goals and activities of other network members.
Although our website is in English, we communicate in Letzebuergesch, German, French and English.
