Community-Based Environmental Education

Community-Based Environmental Education (CBEE) is an approach that involves local communities in learning about and addressing environmental issues that affect them directly. It emphasizes active participation, where residents, schools, organizations, and local leaders work together to gain knowledge, develop skills, and implement solutions for sustainability and conservation. CBEE fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility, empowering communities to protect their natural resources and improve their quality of life through tailored education and collaborative action. This approach ensures that environmental learning is relevant, culturally appropriate, and effectively integrated into community development.
