Abstract

The environmental guide for the separation of garbage in the José Martí Educational Unit of the Santa Clara Canton, Province of Pastaza, directed to teachers, students, administrative and service personnel on the proper management of solid waste. The method was based on the observation of the reality of the educational sector, determining that the contamination is due to the poor management of solid waste in the Educational Unit, with environmental damage due to the contamination of soil and water resources, health problems, destruction of flora and fauna and the loss of biodiversity in this important corner of the Amazon. To achieve the environmental awareness of the "José Martí" Educational Unit of Santa Clara and the population of the area of direct influence, we began with the collection of bibliographic information, after which a questionnaire was prepared to interview teachers, students, administrative and service personnel. With this information, we proceeded to the tabulation and subsequent diagnosis, identifying the topics on which teachers, students, administrative and service personnel were trained in three workshops on topics related to solid waste management. With the results obtained through research to a total of two hundred and eighty-eight people between teachers, students, administrative and service staff, living in this productive and tourist sector of the Amazon, achieving 90% significant changes that benefit the relationship human being nature allowing a sustainable and sustainable development, thus improving the quality in the community. I conclude that the training and participation in the workshops allowed a management of solid waste under the rules and techniques to environmental law, and this will allow to present a clean and healthy environment. We recommend putting into practice the knowledge acquired in the training workshops.
