Curricular greening in Higher Education: challenges and perspectives

This article intends to contribute with the reflection and dialogue related to the process of curricular greening, with its focus on the Institutions of Higher Education [Instituições de Educação Superior (IES)]. We present a contextualization of some theoretical marks of this theme, followed by a panoramic description of work processes and experiences of curricular greening within universities in different countries and in Brazilian IES that participate as link institutions from REASul (South Brazilian Environmental Education Net) and from Alianza de Redes Iberoamericanas por la Sustentabilidad y el Ambiente (ARIUSA). The article discusses the paths of insertion of social-environmental sustainability in the actions of curricular greening. As results, some challenges and perspectives of this movement are indicated in the incorporation of the sustainability culture as an institutional policy within universities.
