This research presents a proposal for reading workshops as an alternative for the development of environmental education in university students. It is approached from a theoretical-methodological conception with the purpose of transforming the educational reality. The elaboration of the proposal was preceded by a study of the peculiarities of university extension activities, their objectives and organizational forms, as well as the conceptions of environmental education. For its development, the human and material potential of the territory was considered, based on the proposed objective, which consists of: demonstrating how interactive reading workshops contribute to environmental education in the students of Aguada Municipality University Center. The application of the instruments, during the implementation of the proposal, allowed corroborating a greater development of environmental culture in university students, based on the knowledge they demonstrate and the understanding of the actions for the protection of the environment. The necessary conditions exist to continue its application in Aguada Municipality University Center and reading workshops can be generalized based on their adaptation to new contexts.
