Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This study examines rural environmental education in Ciudad Bolívar, Bogotá, under the framework of the Special Program for Rural Education (PEER). Using a mixed-methods participatory action research (PAR) approach, the research identifies the socio-environmental challenges faced by rural communities, including ecosystem degradation, lack of environmental curricula in schools, and limited teacher training. The main goal is to develop a comprehensive educational strategy that strengthens environmental awareness and promotes sustainable practices tailored to the local context, aligned with the Climate Action Law (Law 2427 of 2024). Findings highlight that community empowerment, the use of technological tools, and the integration of ancestral knowledge are essential for social transformation towards sustainable development and climate resilience in rural areas.
