Community participation in land conservation in Tanzania: A Case of Hifadhi Ardhi Dodoma (HADO) in Mvumi Makulu village in Chamwino District Katega Israel B., Hyandye Canute, Mwalugeni Benjamin Institute of Rural Development Planning, Dodoma Online published on 21 November, 2013. Abstract This paper is a result of the study which was conducted in Mvumi Makulu village, one of the villages of HADO programme. The main objective of the study was to assess the practice of community participation in land conservation interventions. A sample size of 98 households was used in this study. Descriptive statistical tools were used to analyse data by using SPSS computer software. The study observed that most community members were not involved adequately in land conservation interventions carried out by HADO. Most households indicated to have been informed about the interventions through the village meetings and workshop organized by HADO without being involved in the decision making process. This situation resulted in poor performance of the interventions and therefore the non-attainment of the objectives of the programme. The study concludes that HADO should revisit its approach of introducing interventions by making sure that community participation is ingrained in all stages of the intervention activities for better results.
