Özet:

 


Sustainable local development aims to improve economy while taking into
account environmental protection. Within this context, the contribution of
women to sustainable local development over the years is essential to be
explored in order to highlight the importance of their offer. This research
aims to investigate the role of women in environmental protection for
sustainable local development in a Greek island, Rhodes. 


A semi-structured interview was designed as a data collection tool. It
was a field research which was conducted in the villages of the island as well
as in the city of Rhodes. The sample of the survey was composed of women over
sixty-five (65) years of age.


The results of the survey show that the participation of women was
particularly important in the environmental protection of the island, as their
daily habits and occupations were environmentally friendly. The yards of their
houses were decorated with flowers and trees. In their gardens they planted
vegetables that were cultivating without using fertilizers or pesticides. They
also collected rain water and they generally spent water with great care and
attention.  They did not throw the excess
food in the garbage, they were giving pets or domestic animals the leftover
food, and they also made sure that garbage from housework was scarce.
Therefore, their work, their everyday habits and their way of life did not
burden the environment, so they made a decisive contribution to the sustainable
development of the island.
