An empirical study of the environment and forest development community projects in Ethiopia

The study examined how non-formal Environmental Education (EE) is used in interventions aimed at empowering
rural society in Ethiopia. The study focused on a relatively less explored area of how non-formal EE in the form of
project-based learning was used to equip the community with skills and knowledge. Using qualitative data
collection methods and thematic analysis as an analytical strategy, the study produced evidence of the importance
of community programs for out-of-school youth and adults in the acquisition of fundamental skills and knowledge. Green campaigns were found to be essential to sustain the lives of rural communities. As demonstrated in
the study, community projects designed to enhance learning are in sync with the relevant theory of project-based
learning. Assisted by relevant conceptualization, the organization which motivated this study, develops insights
for knowledge management for further implementation strategies.
