Abstract Communities need to engage in initiatives that tackle environmental sustainability issues. However, the lessons communities learn from these initiatives may go far beyond the initial local project. This article presents findings from an empirical study investigating the experiences of 38 residents who began participating in on-site composting in their apartment buildings. It was found that resident learnings extended beyond composting. Free-choice learning outcomes varied by the composting method and educational approach. For some residents, participation resulted in a greater awareness of food waste produced. For others, their involvement in on-site composting inspired a greater sense of community, a deepened connection with nature, and a desire to grow green spaces and create positive global change toward sustainability.

通过公寓楼住宅堆肥的社区学习

摘要 社区需要参与解决环境可持续性问题的举措。然而,社区从这些举措中汲取的经验教训可能远远超出最初的本地项目。本文介绍了一项实证研究的结果,该研究调查了 38 名开始在其公寓楼内参与现场堆肥的居民的经历。结果发现,居民学习的范围超出了堆肥。自由选择的学习结果因堆肥方法和教育方法而异。对于一些居民来说,参与导致对产生的食物浪费有了更高的认识。对于其他人来说,他们参与现场堆肥激发了更大的社区意识,加深了与自然的联系,并渴望发展绿色空间并为可持续发展创造积极的全球变化。
