National Environmental Education Strategy for Sustainability

The National Environmental Education Strategy for Sustainability is a Spanish policy framework that promotes the integration of environmental awareness and sustainable development principles into education and public life. The strategy supports cooperation between schools, institutions, and communities to encourage responsible environmental behaviour.
The document highlights the importance of active participation, community engagement, and practical learning experiences. It promotes educational initiatives related to biodiversity, climate change, responsible consumption, and local sustainability challenges.
Within the Environment-Based Learning (EBL) framework, this strategy provides a valuable reference for connecting science and mathematics learning with environmental realities. It encourages schools to use local contexts as learning environments and to involve students in community-based sustainability actions.
The strategy is particularly relevant for disadvantaged educational settings, as it promotes inclusive access to environmental education and participation in community initiatives. It supports educational approaches that empower learners to contribute positively to their surroundings.
