This study aims to critically analyze communication and negotiation strategies that are specifically applied in managing multicultural dynamics within Islamic educational settings in Indonesia. Employing a structured literature review method, the study synthesizes findings from peer-reviewed journals and scholarly articles selected based on relevance to multicultural education, communication theory, and Islamic pedagogical practices. The analysis reveals key strategies including the dissemination of accurate intercultural information, stakeholder collaboration across religious and ethnic lines, and the promotion of media literacy to combat stereotypes and prevent social polarization. It also highlights contextual challenges such as socio-cultural resistance, inconsistent policy frameworks, and the influence of global narratives on Islamic identity.
