Environmental Citizenship Education through the Doñana, Biodiversity and Culture Program
While the need to educate for the formation of environmentally committed citizens is something that has always been recognized, currently however it has become an obligation. The present study analyzes the Doñana, Biodiversity and Culture Program from the perspective of its participants. The program is part of the action being carried out with schools intending to teach environmental citizenry using the context of protected natural spaces, in this specific case, the Doñana National Park. The Park’s managers and public guides were interviewed, and observation records of the process were collected. These were later analyzed by means of a category table elaborated within the project Patrimonial Education for Citizens’ Territorial and Emotional Intelligence, of which this study is a part. The consistency of the informants was verified, as also was the practice observed, showing the importance of the socio-identity framework, of critical thinking, and of socio-affective relationships with the territory. ; This study is linked to the R&D + i project “Heritage education for the territorial and emotional intelligence of citizens. Analysis of good practices, design and intervention in compulsory education” (EDU2015-67953-P) which has made its preparation possible. The translation has been possible thanks to the funding of the Research Group “Marismas y Playas” (RNM 358)
