Abstract: Introduction: Cuban educational policy establishes the need to integrate Fidel Castro's thinking and environmental education as a fundamental part of university students' education, with the aim of fostering critical awareness and commitment to sustainable development and environmental protection.Objective: To reveal the need to take advantage of the potential of Fidel Castro's thinking for the environmental education of university students through its incorporation into the teaching-learning process of Marxism-Leninism courses.Methods: The research was guided by the dialectical-materialist method. Documentary and analytical-synthetic methods of analysis were used. Twenty-two bibliographies were consulted.Results: A characterization was made of the state of environmental education in the teaching-learning process of Marxism-Leninism. As a result, it was possible to methodologically dose those elements of Fidel's work to be incorporated into each subject through a system of activities that made it possible to transform the reality of a teaching-learning process of Marxism-Leninism subjects in which environmental education was weak and where the potential of Fidel Castro's environmental thinking was not being exploited for its improvement. This was part of one of the authors' master's thesis. The necessary teaching materials were developed. The results have been presented at grassroots, municipal, national, and international events, which has made it possible to increase the discipline's contribution to the quality of the comprehensive training process for future professionals.Conclusions: The potential of Fidel Castro's environmental thinking was identified, revealing the need to take advantage of it in the teaching-learning process of Marxism-Leninism courses as a tool to promote a sustainable environmental culture among university students.
