Abstract

Purpose: This conceptual study aims to explore ecomusicology as a framework for decolonizing music learning, with Tembang Bocah Banyumasan serving as a case to demonstrate how local musical practices can inform culturally and ecologically grounded pedagogy. Method: The study employs a theoretical-analytical approach, reviewing literature on ecomusicology, decolonial music education, and Indonesian children’s songs, and synthesizing insights from Tembang Bocah to identify links between musical, cultural, and ecological values. Result and Discussion: Analysis shows that integrating Tembang Bocah into music learning promotes multidimensional learning, including musical skill development, local cultural understanding, and ecological awareness. This approach challenges Western-centric pedagogical norms and supports the internalization of moral, social, and environmental values in learners. Implication: The findings suggest that educators can use local songs to preserve cultural heritage, foster ecologically conscious learning, and implement contextually relevant, decolonized music education. This model offers potential adaptation for other local contexts globally.

Abstract

Traditional cultural expressions offer robust, community-based pathways for advancing sustainable development; however, their concrete contributions to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are frequently overlooked in local policy and research. This study examines how Tembang Bocah Banyumasan supports SDG-related initiatives in Banyumas, Indonesia, with a particular focus on economic growth, health and well-being, education, and environmental awareness. Utilizing a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were gathered through in-depth interviews with musicologists, cultural activists, and community members involved in the production and promotion of this tradition. The findings were analyzed thematically through a sustainable development lens, linking cultural heritage and local wisdom to social transformation. Results indicate that Tembang Bocah Banyumasan not only solidifies cultural identity but also serves as an accessible platform for transmitting values, fostering children’s creativity, and encouraging civic participation. Furthermore, these cultural functions generate broader sustainability benefits by enhancing informal learning, reinforcing healthy social behaviors, stimulating creative economy opportunities, and promoting environmental stewardship. This study concludes that Tembang Bocah Banyumasan provides an authentic mechanism for localizing SDG initiatives while sustaining regional heritage and community resilience. Its novelty lies in the explicit mapping of a specific musical tradition to the SDGs, demonstrating how localized practices serve as grounded catalysts for sustainable development.
