Abstract

Today, the global environmental crisis has become a central concern that affects all aspects of human life and the planet. Issues such as climate change, deforestation, biodiversity loss, air and water pollution, and land degradation are challenges that require an urgent and coordinated response. Despite the evident need to integrate an environmental perspective in all fields of knowledge, law study programs have shown a slow and fragmented incorporation of environmental content. One of the main obstacles is the lack of an interdisciplinary approach in law curricula, where traditional disciplines are often prioritized and the integration of environmental knowledge is neglected; Furthermore, there is a lack of specialized teachers and adequate educational resources that address the complexities of environmental law effectively.

On the other hand, the growing demand for professionals with knowledge in environmental law presents an opportunity in the workplace to strengthen the skills and suitability of professionals and therefore, the development of a curricular proposal for the inclusion of said contents is relevant and right in the middle of the academic offer for future lawyers.
