Educação ambiental para a prevenção de incêndios no mundo: uma revisão da literatura
Environmental education fosters environmentally literate citizens capable of addressing sustainability challenges. This article presents a literature review on environmental education and how fire-related topics are approached in primary education worldwide. The review combined quantitative bibliometric analysis and a qualitative systematic review supported by Artificial Intelligence, using Scopus and Web of Science databases. A total of 16,421 articles were identified since 1968, with 4,065 duplicates removed. The annual growth rate of publications was 11.43%. Female researchers ranked highest in productivity and impact (H-index). Core themes in environmental education include climate change, biodiversity, waste management, and ecology. However, only 0.152% of all documents addressed fire education in schools and universities. Most fire-related studies focused on prevention, safety, and forest fire suppression.
