Spiritual ecology and biocultural heritage

Abstract

Spiritual Ecology is seen as a set of spirituality practices linked to ecology, in the sense of internalizing ecological feelings and procedures that come to be seen, in this context, as religious mediation in the search for the sacred. It is expected to contribute to inspire new ways of understanding the relationship between Society and Nature and to stimulate research and management approaches that favor the essential reconnection that goes beyond what can be seen and touched. Hence the importance of a pedagogical practice thought and planned for a new ecological activism, one that is environmentally and spiritually oriented to bring the magic of the connection with nature back to human life.
