Geoparks and Environmental Education: A Dialetical (de)construction

It can be inferred that the concept of Geopark enables a systematization and compilation of segments whose activities tend to exist, function and develop in an autonomous and parallel form. Created by European Geoparks Network in 2000, assumed the auspices of UNESCO in 2004, and in 2015, with the official designation of UNESCO Global Geoparks, integrated in the International Geosciences and Geoparks Programme and became official in UNESCO. For such purpose, it aims to formalize and seal the concession of the title of Geoparks through guidelines whose outcomes pass through several areas of knowledge, such as geology, biology, tourism, economy and history. That is where it is necessary to build an Environmental Education that allows the installation and creation of a geographical space, whose potential is to capture materialities and subjectivities by which individuals and local communities recognize themselves as the backbone and the center of projects or programs that encourage an Ecological Awareness, allowing an Environmental Awareness.
