abstract = {The main argument defended in this article is that the involvement of teachers in decisionmaking about environmental aspects related to the management of educational institutions constitutes a powerful tool for training, teacher professional development, and environmental literacies. A
group of early childhood education teachers across various institutions work under a collaborative
action-research model for an entire year that is focussed on the following: (1) the institution’s water,
solid waste, and energy management; (2) the planning of innovative activities related to water, solid
waste, and energy, and; (3) participation in transformative actions that involve families and impact
their neighbourhoods. The experience enables the building of a theoretical model of teacher training
aimed at acquiring action skills from a comprehensive perspective of triple helix environmental
literacy (management, research/innovation, and teaching) that affects their commitments to the
management of environmental resources, the eco-auditing of their eco-school, the curricular greening
of activities, the renewal of educational programs, and the implementation of an action-research
focussed on aspects related to sustainability.},
