Abstract

This community service research aims to examine the role of lecturers in building religious moderation in the HKBP Nommensen University Medan environment. In the context of a pluralistic society, universities have a strategic responsibility to instill the values of tolerance, inclusiveness, and peace through higher education. This study uses a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method, through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies. The results of the study indicate that lecturers at UHN Medan generally have a good understanding of the concept of religious moderation, which is reflected in the integration of the values of tolerance and diversity in learning, providing role models in social interactions, and active participation in interfaith activities. However, the implementation of the values of religious moderation still faces a number of challenges, such as interfaith stereotypes, limited multicultural pedagogy, and lack of institutional policy support. This study recommends strategies to strengthen the role of lecturers through ongoing training, development of inclusive curriculum, collaboration between faculties and religions, and the creation of a campus culture that supports the values of moderation. These findings emphasize the importance of the role of lecturers as agents of change in creating a peaceful and tolerant academic environment amidst diversity.
