The necessity of new approaches to teaching the nature management is shown in the article. The present economic approaches, based on the understanding of nature as just a resource of human activity, have led to global ecological problems which put humanity to the edge of survival. Thus, there is a need for a new ecological approach based on understanding nature as an equal in rights partner. A course in nature management should include the topics devoted to studying the self-renewing potential of nature and the possibilities of its strengthening by man, because this allows developing the foundations of a co-evolutionary cooperation between man and biosphere. Possible ways of such strengthening are presented in the article.
