dc.description.abstractThis study explores Kenyan parent’s values and beliefs about nature, and how they perceive the role of nature in their child’s development. Further, this study investigates the barriers to accessing outdoor experiential education for this Kenyan community living in Lane County, Oregon, and how summer camps are responding to the lack of diversity. The purpose of this study was to provide a deeper understanding of accessibility to youth outdoor experiential education in the context of summer camps. This study was designed to elicit narratives from members of the Kenyan community to study their values and beliefs about nature and their perceptions of barriers and opportunities for mitigation. Further, this study intended to study narratives of summer camp staff to glean their experiences and perceptions of inclusion and accessibility in outdoor experiential education. This study also sought to obtain information to make recommendations on creating a more inclusive environment for outdoor experiential educationen_US
