          Abstract

          Las percepciones ambientales son entendidas como la forma en que cada individuo aprecia y valora su entorno, e influyen de manera importante en la toma de decisiones del ser humano sobre el ambiente que lo rodea. El presente trabajo hace una breve revisión de la literatura mexicana sobre percepciones ambientales, analizando cómo éstas influyen en la toma de decisiones en torno al manejo ambiental, con énfasis en Áreas Naturales Protegidas (ANP). Se concluye resaltando la importancia de realizar más trabajos que aporten información sobre las percepciones ambientales de las poblaciones locales y distintos actores sociales en ANP, en contextos rurales y urbanos, con el fin de hacer más eficiente la aplicación de la política ambiental mexicana.
