Abstract

Environmental crises have emerged alongside the development of modernity, demanding collective awareness and shared responsibility within society. In response to this challenge, young people have increasingly participated in environmental movements, one of which is the concrete environmental action carried out by the Pandawara Group. By packaging and disseminating their actions through social media platforms, the Pandawara Group not only promotes environmental awareness but also conveys moral and humanitarian values to the wider public. This phenomenon is noteworthy for academic inquiry, particularly from an Islamic perspective that emphasizes ecological character education as part of value-based social transformation and examines the relevance of the Pandawara Group’s movement as a medium for ecological character education. This study employs a qualitative approach using a library research method. The analysis is conducted through a descriptive-analytical framework by examining ideas and values found in the literature as well as the environmental practices of the Pandawara Group as discussed in relevant scholarly sources. The findings indicate that the environmental movement of the Pandawara Group reflects Islamic values such as tawhid, amanah (trust), responsibility, uswatun hasanah (exemplary conduct), and human awareness as khalifah on earth. Contextually, the Pandawara Group’s environmental movement functions as a form of non-formal education that strengthens ecological character education and encourages value-based social transformation.
