Abstract

This article examines the role of Islam and Christianity in building a multicultural society through the perspective of tolerance. With a literature study approach, this article analyzes the history of the relationship between Islam and Christianity, the concept of tolerance in both religions, the practice of tolerance in historical and contemporary contexts, the challenges and obstacles in building tolerance, and the factors influencing tolerance. Key findings show that tolerance is a fundamental value in Islam and Christianity, reflected in sacred teachings and historical examples. The practice of tolerance in a variety of contexts shows great potential for building harmony, although challenges such as religious extremism, prejudice, and inequality remain. This article concludes by reaffirming the importance of tolerance in multicultural societies and recommending further research on the role of religious leadership, the influence of education, and identity dynamics in promoting interfaith harmony

Abstract

This study explores the lives of street-selling children in Dili, Timor-Leste, who support their families through informal economic activities. Using a qualitative library-based research approach, the study highlights their dual roles as sources of family income and children with dreams and emotional needs. These children often work under harsh conditions and face social stigma. Only 40% of them have access to formal education. Despite this, they express strong educational aspirations, better livelihoods, and social recognition. The article emphasizes the urgency of inclusive educational policies, child protection laws, and government and civil society collaborative efforts to ensure a supportive environment for these vulnerable children. This research contributes to understanding the intersection of child labor, education access, and child welfare in post-conflict developing countries.
