MUNOZ-MONTILLA, Alba Nubia  and  PARAMO-BERNAL, Pablo. Monitoring Environmental Education Processes: A Proposal for Structuring a System of Environmental Education Indicators. Rev. colomb. educ. [online]. 2018, n.74, pp.81-106. ISSN 0120-3916.

Despite the significant progress made in the development of environmental education policies in recent years, little is known about the impact and effectiveness of the countless activities, projects and initiatives resulting from those policies on the conservation of ecological resources and, most of all, on people's training in pro-environmental behavior. In this paper, we formulate a system of environmental education indicators, which do not formally exist in Colombia, with the purpose of monitoring the scope and development of the educational actions promoted and undertaken from different policies and institutional programs. The proposed system includes a number of operational guidelines for collecting information from environmental education processes regarding environmentally relevant behaviors. This is expected to contribute to the management and projection of environmental education in the different action levels and to consolidate the existing knowledge on the most effective actions.

Keywords : indicators; environmental education; pro-environmental behavior.
