Educación ambiental como apoyo a proyectos de agricultura urbana ejecutados por el Jardín Botánico de Bogotá

Abstract

The José Celestino Mutis Botanical Garden of Bogotá in the technical-operational sub-direction of the urban agriculture line in articulation with the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas allows the realization of an internship as a degree modality to opt for the title of Technologist in Environmental Management and Public Services. Based on this, the following work entitled "Environmental education as support to urban agriculture projects implemented by the Botanical Garden of Bogota" is developed. Initially it is supported by the process of historical analysis as a way of storing information of the activities that are carried out during the visits to the gardens, also methodological instruments are used as field notes and observation "in situ" in the works within the locality of Bosa, so that important data can be collected in the recommendations and suggestions given to the gardener. This made it possible to identify the key aspects that can enrich the urban agriculture program from the perspective of sustainability, which made it possible to create an infographic as an explanatory image that highlights and disseminates the environmental benefits of the application of urban agroecological practices, in such a way as to reach another type of population where participation and promotion are part of the success factors.
