The major objective of this study lied in finding out whether there was a relationship between bush burning and ecosystem conservation in Nyakabande sub-county, Kisoro District. Other objectives included: To ascertain the extent of bush burning in Nyakabande sub-county, Kisoro District and to find out the level of ecosystem conservation in Nyakabande sub-county, Kisoro District. To achieve a sample size of eighty participants from Nyakabande Sub-County using Solvin's formula, the study used a basic random chance sampling technique using a descriptive and observational research design. According to the research, there was a 0.806 link between ecosystem preservation and avoiding bushfires. We came to the conclusion that there was a positive association between ecosystem protection and bush fire since the correlation coefficient was positive. This indicated that there was an opportunity for environmental preservation to grow along with an increase in the frequency or severity of bush burning. The possibility of finding the correlation coefficient by chance is indicated by the significance level, "Sig. (2-tailed)," which is displayed. In this case, the significance level was 0.000, which was less than the conventional threshold of 0.05. This demonstrated that the relationship between ecosystem preservation and bush fire was statistically significant at the 0.05 level. The null hypothesis, according to which there was no association between the two variables, was thus rejected. The investigator advised the government to give NEMA enough resources so that it can research.miu.ac.ug/publications 645 METROPOLITAN JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND HEALTH RESEARCH ISSN: 1813-4270 Vol. 2 Issue 3, June - 2023, Pages: 645-662 oversee all wooded areas across the nation by enforcing stringent rules to safeguard trees from bush burning for future generations. To preserve ecosystems and the environment, the investigator advises farmers to use good farming practices including agroforestry and reforestation The farmers are also recommended to use electricity and biogas as forms of fuel energy for cooking and avoid using fire woods as fuel.
