Abstract

Maluku Province, Indonesia, is an archipelago characterized by its vibrant cultural, ethnic, and social diversity, but also by recurrent conflicts linked to land, identity, and historical grievances. This study reports on a community service initiative in Negeri Laha, Ambon, designed to enhance local capacities for conflict management and resolution. Employing participatory action research, the program delivered a series of workshops and interactive dialogues focused on the causes, dynamics, and solutions for conflict, with special attention to land disputes involving the Indonesian Air Force and local residents. Thirty participants, including youth, women, traditional, and religious leaders, engaged in case simulations, collaborative reflection, and practical training in negotiation and mediation. The results indicate a significant increase in participants’ understanding of conflict sources, practical confidence in resolution strategies, and motivation to continue peacebuilding efforts. Key barriers identified include deep-seated mistrust, external influences, and limited institutional support for ongoing reconciliation. The initiative’s emphasis on inclusive engagement, local leadership, and culturally relevant dialogue aligns with best practices in global peacebuilding literature and demonstrates the value of university-community collaboration. This model offers promising implications for other multicultural and conflict-prone areas, supporting both immediate dispute resolution and the development of sustainable local peace infrastructures. Future efforts should prioritize sustained capacity-building, regular dialogue forums, and integrated support from government and civil society to maintain long-term social harmony and resilience.

Abstract

The role of social capital in the agricultural sector, especially in rice production, is crucial as it serves not only as a foundation for national food security but also as a driving force for the rural economy. In Waihatu Village, West Kairatu District, West Seram Regency, rice farmers encounter several obstacles, including limited access to modern technology, market information, and the impacts of climate change, all of which affect crop productivity. This descriptive qualitative study aims to examine the effectiveness of social capital in supporting farmers' productive activities. The research took place in Waihatu Village and involved data collection through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings reveal that social capital is already embedded in the interactions between rice farmers and buyers, demonstrating its positive effect on increasing farmer productivity. Key elements of social capital—trust, social networks, and social norms—play a significant role in enhancing agricultural output. Trust among farmers fosters cooperation and mutual assistance, especially in the exchange of knowledge about improved farming techniques. Social networks support the distribution of agricultural products, improve access to business capital, and strengthen ties between farmers and buyers. Additionally, the presence of social norms helps to establish work discipline, promote collaboration, and maintain social cohesion. Importantly, the ethnic diversity in Waihatu Village is not seen as a barrier but rather as a source of shared experiences and innovation in farming practices.

Abstract

The family is the primary space for cultivating values of justice and gender equality. However, in Negeri Hukurila, Ambon City, family education patterns remain gender-biased. Male and female roles are often rigidly distinguished, limiting women’s voices in household decision-making and confining girls to domestik spheres while boys are encouraged toward public roles. Such conditions risk perpetuating gender inequality and hindering children’s equal development. This community service program aimed to raise public awareness of inclusive and gender-responsive family education through participatory approaches grounded in local wisdom. Methods included socialization, training, technology application, and evaluation that involving traditional leaders, saniri negeri, religious figures, youth, and women. The results demonstrate increased community understanding of gender-responsive family concepts, greater equality in family dialogue, and the revitalization of local practices such as masohi (mutual cooperation) as a symbol of just family collaboration. The novelty of this program lies in integrating local wisdom to build family education patterns that respect gender equality, positioning indigenous communities as key agents of change. The study concludes that gender-responsive family education is well accepted when delivered through culturally relevant approaches. Future recommendations include expanding cross-sector collaboration, strengthening local cadres as change agents, and encouraging community-level policies to sustain inclusive family practices

Abstract

This article analyzes the role of the Ambon Peace Gong as a multidimensional space that integrates post-conflict memory, civic education, and community-based tourism. The study aims to understand how this monument is interpreted, managed, and utilized by local communities, visitors, and stakeholders within the broader context of post-conflict social transformation in Ambon, Indonesia. Employing a qualitative approach and case study method, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis of museum materials and related policies. Thematic analysis was conducted to explore the symbolic, educational, and economic dimensions of the monument. The findings reveal that the Peace Gong functions not only as a reminder of past violence but has also evolved into a social arena that fosters civic values, expands public learning spaces, and creates economic opportunities through tourism rooted in local narratives. The novelty of this study lies in its interdisciplinary approach, viewing the monument as a living site whose meanings and functions are continuously negotiated. This research contributes to the discourse in social sciences and humanities, particularly in the fields of memorialization, peace education, and participatory tourism development, and recommends strengthening community involvement to sustain the relevance and future of peace sites in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines intergenerational language transmission and identity formation among minority language speakers in the Kei Islands, Eastern Indonesia, where the Kei language (Veveu Evav) is gradually marginalized by the increasing dominance of Bahasa Indonesia. Using a qualitative ethnographic approach, data were collected from three generational groups across ten families, alongside cultural leaders and teachers, through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, natural conversation recordings, and document analysis. The findings indicate that the Kei language remains strong in ritual and emotional domains but shows significant decline in educational and digital contexts. Parents act as linguistic mediators, balancing the preservation of traditional values with the practical demands of national language use. Younger speakers construct hybrid Kei identities through narratives, music, and online expressions, reflecting both local attachment and global aspiration. The study introduces the Intergenerational Identity Transmission Model (IITM), integrating intergenerational language transmission with identity formation, a linkage rarely explored in Indonesian sociolinguistics. This conceptual and empirical contribution broadens understanding of language socialization by incorporating online and interfaith dimensions, while providing insights for minority language revitalization and education policies that promote multilingual and culturally grounded identities.

Abstract

This study explores collaborative communication strategies based on youth participation in strengthening the destination image of Nam Indah Beach in Ohoitahit Village, North Dullah Island, Maluku. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The findings show that the village government’s communication strategies emphasize youth involvement, social media utilization, and collaboration between authorities and community groups. These efforts have enhanced the image of Nam Indah Beach as a destination with strong local identity and ecotourism potential, while fostering residents’ sense of ownership and environmental awareness. The study’s novelty lies in its community-based youth collaboration model that not only strengthens destination branding but also supports social transformation and community empowerment. It recommends improving participatory strategic communication capacity in tourism to enrich discourse in development communication and community-based tourism studies.

Abstract

This study investigates how cultural traditions and religious values intersect with gender-responsive education to shape family well-being in indigenous Maluku communities, focusing on Hukurila village in Ambon. While gender-responsive education is central to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 4: Quality Education and SDG 5: Gender Equality), patriarchal norms continue to limit women’s access to education, particularly in entrepreneurship and leadership, with minimal family engagement in promoting gender equity. The research addresses how cultural-religious synergy can support inclusive education in this context. Using a qualitative descriptive approach within the sociology of education and gender studies, data were collected through in-depth interviews with youth, women, customary leaders, religious leaders, and local authorities; participatory observation; and analysis of local documents and church programs. Thematic analysis explored how communities construct gender equality through cultural and religious frameworks. Findings reveal tensions between patriarchal traditions and gender agendas. The “tiga batutungku” (government, customary, and religious leaders) act ambivalently, while local wisdom, such as badraheng, offers potential for inclusive education. Church family programs further demonstrate the capacity to shift paradigms toward equitable family well-being. The novelty lies in advancing the concept of cultural-religious synergy as a framework for gender-responsive education in indigenous contexts.
