Educación cívica en arquitectura y urbanismo: ciudadanos conscientes y participativos en la conformación de nuestro medio ambiente construido

Abstract

Teaching architecture to children, still in the process of understanding their Built Environment, would enable an educative process leading to greater knowledgment and interest in this topic among citizens, and therefore allow them to participate in its development. The existance of citizens with a developed consciousness of architecture would strengthen the relation between those participating in the creation of the Built Environment, thus allowing a better dialogue in the decision-making instances involved in this process.
