Key actors' proposal on the environmental education plan of "la cuenca del lago de Valencia"

From the moment the basin of Lago de Valencia (Valencia Lake) was declared in emergency, the constitution of an Environmental Educational Plan, considering the opinion of the key actors from Aragua and Carabobo States, was established as a priority. The most prominent of the guidelines were the dissemination and promotion of legal standards, the support of communities to municipal governments in the implementation of programs and projects, the registration of industrial and commercial activities most likely to degrade the environment and the implementation of management plans for residual and waste treatment plants. Similarly, some important aspects were also settled: The training of multipliers to reactivate the environmentalists meetings, the ecological agriculture by producers, the establishment of an early warning network the curricula adjustment and the support of the media to inform the citizenship about these issues and their solutions.
