Aim: This study examines the relevance of the "garden" philosophy in modern education, aligning it with the Merdeka Curriculum. Results: A semiotic analysis reveals the philosophy’s enduring relevance, particularly in promoting joyful, student-centered, and sustainable learning. Novelty: It bridges historical educational ideals with contemporary practices. Implications: The "garden" philosophy offers a foundation for holistic, inclusive education systems that address current challenges effectively. Highlights: Ki Hajar Dewantoro's "garden" philosophy emphasizes holistic, inclusive education integrating intellectual, moral, and social dimensions. The Merdeka Curriculum aligns with the philosophy, focusing on student-centered and joyful learning approaches. Revitalizing this philosophy can address modern educational challenges and foster sustainable, meaningful learning systems.
