Integrando la naturaleza y la educación a través de la ciencia ciudadana
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
La ciencia ciudadana se ha convertido en un elemento clave para la educación ambiental, y para generar vínculos entre las personas y la naturaleza. En este capítulo presentamos cómo ha crecido el proyecto de vinculación con la sociedad "Celebrando la Naturaleza Urbana" y también c´ómo ha sido aplicado en casos de estudio de dos colegios de Quito, Ecuador.
