Multicultural education is key in overcoming intercultural conflicts and increasing understanding between individual students and society. This study explores the implementation of multicultural education at MI Riyadlotul Ulum Kunir Demak as a case study, focusing on the role of multicultural education in dealing with social diversity. Qualitative methods were used to collect data through observation, interviews and document analysis. The results show that MI Riyadlotul Ulum Kunir Demak has adopted a multicultural education approach with initiatives such as a multiculturally oriented curriculum and the use of the latest technology. The impact is an increased student understanding of social diversity and a higher level of tolerance towards cultural and religious differences. However, there are still challenges such as limited resources and the lack of parents' role in supporting multicultural education. Greater efforts are needed from the government to support the implementation of multicultural education explicitly in the curriculum. The results show that multicultural education can help students become more inclusive, open to differences and ready to contribute in a diverse global society. This is an important step in dealing with social diversity in the digital age.
