The project aims at evaluation of local communities involvement in Restoration of quarry sites by assessing their perceptions, knowledge and extent at which they are involved in quarry restoration activities. The project intends to maximize success of the restoration activities by improving relations between scientists and the local community, reducing pitfall in restoration efforts by incoparating traditional knowledge in restoration activities and maximize benefits to local communities from restoration projects in terms of environmental conservation and financial benefits gained. The target communities are those nearby surrounding the TPCPLC quarry sites such Chasimba, Madame, Salalsala na Chama and any deemed closer during project implementation. Finally the informations assed will enable the project to come up with the best techniques on how to impart the intended knowledge in the environmental and financial fields to the community for the benefits of the two parties and the world at large.
