This study focuses on examining university students' perception of children's relevant factors for recycling behavior, with the main finding that according to students, family environment is the most important factor affecting children's recycling behavior.
The purpose of this synthetic work is to examine university students' perception of children's relevant factors for recycling behaviour aiming to improve their university curriculum. The main idea of this analysis was to focus on faculty of education students, as they will be the future environmental educators that will provide the basic environmental knowledge to students in preschool and primary education. A systematic review was performed to reveal potential factors influencing the recycling behaviour of children, and then a new survey was conducted through a questionnaire to evaluate the 320 university students' perception of the Faculty of Education of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki on the factors affecting the preschool and primary school students towards recycling. The findings indicated that university students' perception is in line with the bibliography and show that according to students, the family environment is the most important factor affecting children's recycling behaviour.
