Abstract

The proposal to include an ecological perspective in the curricula and university management programs is based on the need to address the ecological collapse we are currently experiencing from a new angle, one more in line with the proposals presented in important international academic and scientific circles. The goal is to validate recognizing socio-environmental deterioration as an anthropogenic phenomenon that derives from the way in which modern society has organized to produce and consume the material and service resources required to reach and maintain the standards of welfare proposed. Given the need to rethink how, as individuals, communities, and governments, we conceive the economy and make decisions, the article proposes a program of educational reform that incorporates the imperative of achieving ecological literacy
