This study examines how ecotheology-based green pesantren management is transformed through the integration of ecological leadership, Islamic ecotheological education, and institutional management practices. A qualitative single-case study was conducted at Nurul Jadid Islamic Boarding School, Paiton, Probolinggo, East Java, from March to June 2026. Nineteen informants were selected purposively from the Board of Caretakers, pesantren administrators, the Environmental and Cleanliness Division (BKLH), dormitory administrators, and senior students. Data were generated through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, and were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings indicate four interconnected mechanisms. Islamic ecotheology provides the normative orientation through the principles of khalīfah, amānah, mīzān, and the prohibition of fasād fī al-arḍ; the ecological leadership of the kiai translates these values into institutional direction and role modeling; ecotheological education internalizes them through meaning-making, habituation, and ecological praxis; and the green management system embeds them in planning, organizing, coordination, implementation, supervision, and participation. Their integration supports a shift from activity-based environmental programs toward sustainable educational governance. The study proposes Ecotheological Green Pesantren Management as a context-bound conceptual model linking spiritual values, leadership, pedagogy, organizational routines, and sustainability governance.
