摘要：AbstractThis study evaluates the level of community awareness towards the environment and the level of participation of a community in environmental programs through the Local Agenda 21 (LA21). The programme components include social and environmental aspects. Published studies contend that people are aware of the various environmental problems but lack involvement. This study found that reasons of lack of participation are the lack of time, interest and awareness. Recommendations proposed to encourage more interest and involvement from the community include strengthening the coordination between the Local Authority and the community especially in schools and with other stakeholders in line with the objective of Agenda 21.
