Environmental Education (EE) has been created as a tool of environmental culture. In Colombia, the EE became real in 1994 through of environmental school projects (ESP) in educational institutions (EI). Currently the damage to nature increases in Boyacá; no environmental culture, moreover, no detailed information exists about formulation and development of the ESP as one point of reference in the elaboration of programmes and projects for the Departmental Plan of Environmental Education, Boyacá. The aim was to analyze the state of Boyacá ESP through: 1. Indicate their generalities, 2. Evidence characteristics of its formulation; and 3. Investigate its development. It sent out a survey to 254 EI to gather data on these topics through of Departmental Education Secretary. Answered the survey in 175 EI. It was found that: the ESP prevailing in urban areas; most have less than four years created, on a small budget. The formulation includes environmental characterization and justification, but not report problems in the Territory the life zone of schools; prioritize topics as awareness, however persists solid waste management and recycling. Formulation and development had student and teachers participation, the majority of natural sciences. Their development is not articulated with the School Environmental Committees, but with other actors. Therefore, it is clear that need for a program and specific projects in EE in Boyacá, where the institutions assumes independent and jointly liable to the accompaniment and participation both in formulation, development and impact of the ESP, in order to make effective of environmental culture consistent with the rights of nature: respect, responsibility and restoration.
