Results evidenced that in Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana, Montería campus, man-society-nature relation has been affected by the use and savings of raw materials, energy, and water; solid and liquid residues handling; use common zones; environmental analysis in courses of study; appropriation of the citizen; use of communication for generating social transformation processes, and development of research and social projection projects in environmental issues
