Abstract

Sibolga is a coastal city in Indonesia characterized by high ethnic and religious diversity, shaped by a long history of trade, migration, and cultural exchange. This study aims to examine how religious pluralism is managed and the challenges of tolerance in a multicultural society. Using a qualitative method through literature review and interviews, the research identifies two main realities: the potential for harmony through values of mutual cooperation, deliberation, and the local motto “berbilang kaum, satu tujuan” (“many groups, one goal”), as well as vulnerabilities caused by issues of ethnicity and religion (SARA), radicalism, economic inequality, and the politicization of religion. The findings highlight four strategies for strengthening tolerance: multicultural education, structured interfaith dialogue, the role of local leaders as mediators, and the revitalization of cultural values. The novelty of this research lies in its emphasis on solutions grounded in the social practices of Sibolga’s community, making it an adaptive model with potential for replication in other multicultural regions of Indonesia.

Abstract

The current environmental crisis requires technological and policy responses as well as stronger ethical and moral awareness. This study examines the potential for integrating religious values and local wisdom to support environmental conservation in Barus. It uses descriptive and analytical library research. Books, journal articles, conference papers, and relevant historical documents were identified, classified, interpreted, and synthesized. The literature documents local knowledge concerning the camphor tree (Dryobalanops aromatica) and the Kenduri Laut tradition. These materials can be interpreted in dialogue with Islamic environmental principles, including human responsibility as khalifah fi al-ardh, balance (mizan), and the prohibition of damage (fasad). Their intersection offers a possible basis for ecological awareness grounded in religion and local culture. Because this is a literature study, however, it maps conceptual potential; it does not establish that Barus residents practice environmental conservation. Fieldwork is needed to determine how these values are understood and enacted
