SALINAS, Francisco José Martínez. Environmental awareness in public primary education students. Horizontes Rev. Inv. Cs. Edu. [online]. 2023, vol.7, n.28, pp.793-808.  Epub 09-Fev-2023. ISSN 2616-7964.  https://doi.org/10.33996/revistahorizontes.v7i28.555.

The levels and characteristics of environmental awareness in students of public education, primary level, were studied; having as a paradigm the achievement of environmental sustainability. The study focused on the primary level, considering that environmental awareness should be promoted from the first years of life as a guarantee of its durability, considering the state sector because this is where most of the students are located and where the greatest exclusion and marginalization are experienced. The study was carried out under a qualitative approach, by means of a bibliographic and documentary review of research on the emergence, development and consolidation of environmental awareness in primary school students. The technique used was critical review, analyzing and systematizing theses and scientific articles. The inclusion criteria were environmental awareness and primary education. It is concluded that environmental awareness is fundamental to consolidate the environmental education and behavior of citizens, but that it does not have the necessary transcendence in the educational system.
