Abstract

The purpose is to establish mechanisms for constructing the field of Environmental Education (EE) and move towards the interdisciplinarity of EE knowledge, addressing the necessary skills for analysis, diagnosis, participation, and intervention in the population. The objective is to raise awareness in society about the need for a change in the human-nature relationship, considered a dilemma in the context of the civilizational crisis: 1) The transition is made towards a knowledge that integrates, unifies, and considers totality to establish connections between different disciplines in the face of the pollution phenomenon; 2) Given the complexity of Environmental Education (EE), the persistence of the same inertia and logic is observed: the partialization and compartmentalization of studies. The questions arising from this context are as follows: 1) What are the incentives for interdisciplinary EE? 2) What is the internal mechanism occurring in postgraduate teachers in Mexico? and 3) What are the interdisciplinary bridges within it?
