Building Harmony in Schools: Strategies for Implementing Religious Tolerance-Based Education

This research focuses on efforts to build harmony in the school environment by implementing religious tolerance-based education. The problem identified in this study is the increasing tension and conflict caused by different religious beliefs. The purpose of this research is to formulate effective strategies for implementing religious tolerance education to create a harmonious and inclusive school environment. This research uses a qualitative approach and systematic literature review method. The results show that education plays an important role in voicing the values of religious tolerance for social provision. Several strategies can be applied to implement religious tolerance-based education in schools, which are divided into three parts, namely; integrated in subjects, through extracurricular activities, and in school policies and culture. The implementation of these strategies has a positive impact on students, teachers, and schools, but is also faced with several obstacles. The implication of this research is the need for a more in-depth approach to the implementation of effective and sustainable religious tolerance education. Thus, the next generation is expected to strengthen their identity as tolerant individuals.
