Abstract

The development of a local wisdom-based curriculum has become a strategic approach to improving contextual education while strengthening students' character in the era of educational transformation. This study aims to analyze the concepts, implementation strategies, benefits, and challenges of developing a Nusantara local wisdom-based curriculum within the context of general education. The study employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) by examining scholarly publications published over the last five years. The review involved systematic identification, selection, evaluation, and synthesis of relevant studies concerning curriculum development, local wisdom-based learning, and character education. The findings indicate that integrating local wisdom values into learning objectives, instructional materials, teaching strategies, learning media, and assessment enhances learning quality, strengthens students' character, and supports the implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile. However, several challenges remain, including teachers' competencies, limited contextual learning resources, and Indonesia's cultural diversity. Therefore, stronger collaboration among schools, communities, and policymakers is essential to develop adaptive, contextual, and sustainable curricula that produce competent graduates with strong character while preserving the nation's cultural identity.
