This study aims to define the concept of ecological literacy for Generation Z. Then, the author tries to elaborate on the concept of ecological literacy and the concept of environmental awareness to promote ecological knowledge with education on the environment for Generation Z. Using literature review methods, the result of this research is Generation Z is particularly at risk due to the rise of digital technology and the decline of environmental ethics. Awareness of fragile ecosystems from a young age is fundamental to sustainable living. Therefore, educational curricula should be shaped with an emphasis on the idea that cultural diversity should be linked to ecological adaptation, and thus an overall team approach to environmental and ecosystem cognition. However, this requires interdisciplinary collaboration, partnership building and accountability requirements, linked to international agreements on biodiversity, climate change and the rights of indigenous peoples, including equitable benefit sharing. © 2025, Institute for Environmental Nanotechnology.
