پژوهش پیش‌رو با هدف بررسی موانع مشارکت جوامع محلی در پروژه احیای چشم‌‌اندازهای جنگلی و اراضی تخریب‌‌یافته شهرستان ریگان استان کرمان انجام شد. این پژوهش توصیفی و از نوع پیمایشی بود. با استفاده از شیوه نمونه‌‌گیری تصادفی چندمرحله‌‌ای، 120 نفر از ساکنان پنج روستای تحت پوشش پژوهش انتخاب شدند. ابزار گردآوری اطلاعات، پرسش‌نامه بود که کارشناسان روایی آنرا تأیید کردند. پایایی پرسش‌نامه نیز با مقدار ضریب آلفای کرونباخ 0/84 تأیید شد. نتایج نشان داد که از بین متغیرهای اجتماعی، تقدیرگرا بودن و سپردن امور به سرنوشت، مشکلات جوامع محلی (مانند بیکاری، فقر و بی‌‌سوادی) و عدم وجود علاقه در مردم به تغییر وضعیت موجود خود و محیط اطرافشان و از بین متغیرهای سازمانی، هزینه‌‌‌‌بر بودن مشارکت در پژوهش، پرمسئولیت و سخت بودن فعالیت‌‌های موجود در پروژه و سخت بودن شرایط دریافت وام، مهم‌‌ترین موانع مشارکت روستاییان بودند. همچنین، بین موانع اجتماعی مشارکت و متغیرهای مالکیت اراضی کشاورزی، مقدار درآمد ماهانه و تعداد مسافرت به شهر و بین موانع سازمانی و متغیرهای مقدار درآمد ماهانه، تعداد مسافرت به شهر و ارتباط پاسخ‌گویان با مروجان رابطه معنی‌دار وجود داشت. نتایج آزمون مقایسه میانگین نشان داد که تفاوت معنی‌‌داری بین گروه‌‌های مختلف پاسخ‌گویان از نظر درآمد ماهانه، تعداد مسافرت به شهر، دریافت وام و سطح مالکیت اراضی کشاورزی بر حسب موانع اجتماعی و سازمانی مشارکت وجود داشت.

چکیده [English]

This research aimed to identify barriers of local communities’ participation in Rehabilitation of Forest Landscapes and Degraded Land Project (RFLDLP), in Rigan county of Kerman Province. The research was descriptive and based on survey technique. Using multistage random sampling method, 120 residents were selected in five villages covered by the project. Data were gathered by questionnaires that were confirmed by a panel of experts. The reliability of the applied questionnaire was confirmed by Cronbach’s Alpha (α=0.84). The findings suggested fatalism and entrust affairs to fate, problems of local communities (unemployment, poverty, illiteracy and etc.) and lack of interest in changing their current situation and their environment amongst the most important social barriers of local communities’ participation in the project. Furthermore, the important organizational barriers were the cost of participation in the project, high responsibility and demanding project work as well as difficult conditions to receive loans from banks. The results revealed significant correlations between the social barriers of local communities’ participation in project and factors including ownership of agricultural lands, amount of monthly income and number of round-trips to town. Moreover, the amount of monthly income, number of trips to town and contact with extension agents were significantly correlated with the organizational barriers of local communities’ participation in project. The results showed significant differences between views of different groups on social and organizational barriers of participation in project according to amount of monthly income, number of trips to town, loan conditions and ownership of agricultural lands.
