Educación ambiental en la educación superior. Consideraciones teóricas y metodológicas
Zamudio Rodríguez, Carmen; 0000-0003-4575-3359
Following the recognition of the environmental crisis affecting contemporary society as a whole, there is a need to understand the magnitude and dynamics of the same and to take actions that contribute to reversing the trends of environmental unsustainability that are evident in different territories. Therefore, at a global level, during the different world meetings that have been convened in view of the imminent seriousness of environmental problems, the importance of Environmental Education (EE) in the university context has been especially recognized as strategic and urgently needed. Therefore, there is a constant concern to develop processes of inclusion of the environmental dimension in universities. Thus, in its capacity as a social actor and from its missionary work, the University has been incorporating the environmental issue in its various spheres of action. However, in light of this very fact, there is a need to clarify philosophical and pragmatic aspects of the processes of inclusion of environmental education and the need to plan and develop strategies with sufficient intentionality to deploy the environmental dimension in the being and work of the institution; so that professionals are trained within it who contribute to shaping societies that avoid continuing to produce environmental problems.
