| dc.description.abstract | 在發展中國家，綠色、生物多樣性和可持續發展等詞彙已成為普遍的行話，但這些詞彙是否有真正發生變化的趨勢？美國和平隊等援助組織有興趣利用深入農村社區的志願者傳播知識，為發展中國家從採掘式農業實踐向保守式農業實踐的轉變做出貢獻。本論文研究了導致贊比亞國家和平隊領導的倡議成功和失敗的因素。通過對贊比亞小規模農民進行的調查，這項研究收集了有關實施生物多樣性的障礙、背景知識以及限制村莊一級農業增長的因素的數據。然後，本研究將調查結果與 Peace Corp 志願者（服務於 2017-2020 年間）的定性訪談進行了比較，以確定農民需求與志願者能力之間的交叉關係。然後通過分析志願者最突出的項目，這項研究發現了與成功和不成功項目相關的指標。這項研究發現，農村農民往往非常熟悉生物多樣性概念，對進一步的項目有很高的需求，特別是如果他們之前曾與和平隊志願者合作過，並且受資金的限制大於知識的限制。因此，本文發現和平隊志願者在正確識別社區需求、找到忠誠的對應方並將該對應方與資本援助聯繫起來時最有效。具體來說，志願者在這個項目中報告說，大多數不成功的項目都因缺乏這種對口而受到損害，而大多數成功的項目不得不將缺乏資金作為最嚴重的障礙。在分析成功的干預措施與失敗的干預措施時，本研究發現，在成功的情況下，贊比亞提供人力，Peace Corp提供材料。 | zh_TW |
| dc.description.abstract | Biodiversity in agriculture is suffering around the world- more so in developing sectors. Aid organizations such as the American Peace Corps are interested in contributing to the developing world’s transition from extractive to conservative agricultural practices using volunteers that are embedded in rural communities. This thesis studied the factors that led to success and failure in Peace Corps initiatives in the country of Zambia. Through the use of surveys administered to small scale Zambian farmers, this study gathered data on barriers to implementing biodiversity and existing background knowledge on the village level. This study then compared the findings to interviews of Peace Corp volunteers to determine the intersectionality between farmers' needs and volunteer capability. By analyzing the volunteers' most prominent projects, this study found indicators that are linked to successful and unsuccessful projects. This research found that rural farmers tend to be well acquainted with biodiversity concepts, have a high demand for further projects particularly if they have worked on one before, and are limited more by capital than by knowledge. This paper thus finds that Peace Corp volunteers are most effective when they properly identify the needs of a community, find a committed counterpart, and link that counterpart towards capital assistance. Volunteers also reported that most unsuccessful projects were marred by a lack of this counterpart, and most successful projects had to face lack of funding as their most serious obstacle. In analyzing successful interventions versus failed interventions, this study finds that in a winning scenario Zambia provides the manpower, Peace Corp provides the materials. | en |
