New Perspectives For Environmental Education In Adults

Carlos Antonio Pabón Galán, Hernando Meza Osorio, César Augusto Hernández Suárez

Abstract


A systematic review was conducted on the production and publication of research papers concerning the study of environmental education in adults and its new perspectives during the period from 2018 to 2021 under the PRISMA approach (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses). The purpose of the analysis proposed in this paper was to know the main characteristics of the publications registered in the Scopus and WoS database and their scope in the study of the proposed variables, achieving the identification of 99 publications. Thanks to this first identification, it was possible to refine the results through the variables in the search button of both platforms, which were environmental education, and adult education, reaching a total of 14 documents, already excluding duplicates and those that did not meet the analysis criteria. The identified scientific publications were analyzed in the hope of finding out the main characteristics within the execution of research projects referring to the study of new perspectives of environmental education within the methodologies aimed at the education of older adults as a fundamental strategy in the search for environmental conservation through the socialization of plans and academic proposals for raising awareness among this population that traditionally have not been trained in this subject since, as mentioned by some authors, there is a marked tendency to include academic content that deals with environmental care, relatively recently, thus excluding the traditional methodologies in which the elderly and senior citizens were trained.
