Abstract

The aim of this paper is understand from the occupational therapy perspective, about benefits of using horticulture as means of intervention that responds to therapeutic objectives in different areas of performance, and at the same time, linking occupational therapy to a major social problem, the current environmental deterioration. This comes from the internalization that the person modifies the environment through their occupations, which emerges as final reflection that occupational therapists must take an active role, facilitating and promoting ecologically friendly occupations, in order to achieve the person well being, thus generating a sustainable society.
