PENGUATAN NILAI BHINNEKA TUNGGAL IKA DALAM MENUMBUHKAN SIKAP TOLERANSI DAN PERDAMAIAN PADA SISWA SEKOLAH DASAR
Abstract
About this study examines the reinforcement of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika values in fostering tolerance and peace among elementary school students. Indonesia’s diversity of ethnicities, religions, and cultures requires early internalization of unity and respect for differences, yet these values are often understood only symbolically. Using library research, this study analyzes primary and secondary literature on multicultural and character education, guided by Thomas Lickona’s theory of moral knowing, moral feeling, and moral action. Findings reveal that strengthening Bhinneka Tunggal Ika values contributes significantly to shaping tolerant attitudes, preventing bullying, and creating inclusive school environments. Effective approaches include participatory and contextual learning activities such as group discussions, collaborative projects, and creative media. These strategies encourage students not only to recognize diversity but also to practice empathy, cooperation, and peaceful conflict resolution. The study concludes that consistent integration of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika into curriculum and school culture is crucial for building democratic, responsible, and harmonious future citizens.
