Summary/Abstract: This paper analyzes the segment of the educational process in our country, with an emphasis on its pro-environmental orientation. We have also tried to answer the question of the attitude towards the world as an ecological system of children and youth from preschool to higher-education age. The aim was to examine their understanding of human beings as a part of nature, their interconnection with it, the way they as individuals contribute to the maintenance of the balance of nature, and their personal negative actions towards nature. Some of the basic conclusions obtained in this pilot study have been sublimated in this paper. The presented results give us the opportunity to gain a more realistic picture of the current position of ecological values in the educational system of the Republic of Serbia.
