Summary: | Environmental citizenship can be obtained as a requirement to enhance pro-environmental behavior among university students. It takes a bottom-up tactic by including the shared views of all actors – students, ENGOs, university leaders, and governments - in an attempt to achieve lasting environmental outcomes. Before there were no models for higher education based on environmental citizenship and this paper, thus, is trying to fill this gap and suggest some issues necessary for achieving environmental citizenship. The model is derived and it explored the inter-linkages on how to involve the students in pro-environmental activities through the features of environmental citizenship that can affect the environmental outcome. Based on the model, one of the tasks of universities is to improve their strategy and curricula towards more participatory actions and decision-making concerning the environment and to act accordingly. |
