Education and Nature Conservation: an Urgent Alliance

Abstract

This paper aims at pointing out not only Costa Rica’s richness in terms of flora and fauna, but also the risk we face if we are unable to educate citizens for the appropriate nature conservation. In this sense, the authors state that it is through education that nature conversation, which is a necessity, can be promoted among citizens and communities. This is the reason why conservation and education must create an urgent alliance.
