From the table 4.13 shows that 46% of respondents point out that the most who benefit are the population around NNP. This means that the populations neighboring to the park have the ownership of the park hence environmental conservation is to be achieved. On the other hand the table indicates that 25% and 17% of respondents asserted that the beneficiaries are the NNP employees and the country (all Rwandans).

This is explained by the opportunities that they get from the park like the use of improved cooking stoves, they had been taught on how to cultivate muchroom crops and agroforestary was been put into practice. But there still a hindrance for those who said, the beneficiaries is the NNP employees. Only 12% confirmed that, the beneficiaries are tourists. This may become an obstacle for the conservation of environment; therefore, the local leaders have to put much emphasis by the use of sensitization campaign about the importance of environment.

4.2.11. The linkage between environmental conservation and sustainable development of rural areas.

The population was asked to give their views about the linkage between environmental conservation and sustainable development of rural areas especially in Kitabi sector.

According to the table 4.14, the majority of respondents 79% proved their awareness about the linkage between environmental conservation and sustainable development. Only 21% of respondents were not aware on the importance of concerning the environment. This means that local populations recognize the environmental conservation as real basis of achieving sustainable development to the rural areas in Kitabi sector. This can be explained by the implementation of environmental conservation targeting the achievement of sustainability for the future generations.

The reason which pushes the majority to confirm the relationship between environmental conservation and sustainable development is the benefits gained from environment which contributes to the development of their own activities through the tourists who came to visit the park. They benefit from tourism like money of different activities done around the NNP to which is sold to the tourists and employment obtained through the park.
