Religious, cultural, and ethnic diversity is a social reality that characterizes Indonesian society, including the City of Baubau. Amid the dynamics of a pluralistic society, strengthening human brotherhood (ukhuwah insaniyah) has become increasingly important to maintain social harmony and prevent conflicts arising from differences. This Community Service Program (PKM) aimed to enhance the understanding and awareness of religious leaders regarding the importance of fostering ukhuwah insaniyah through interfaith dialogue facilitated by the Interreligious Harmony Forum (Forum Kerukunan Umat Beragama/FKUB) of Baubau City. The program was implemented through lectures, group discussions, and interactive dialogue involving representatives of Islam, Protestant Christianity, Catholicism, Hinduism, and Buddhism. The results demonstrated that interfaith dialogue effectively strengthened mutual respect, improved communication among religious communities, and fostered a shared commitment to maintaining religious harmony and social peace. Furthermore, the program reaffirmed that the values of ukhuwah insaniyah serve as a fundamental basis for promoting a harmonious, tolerant, and civilized society.
