Abstract

challenges in effectively engaging the public and catalysing behavioural change, particularly regarding pervasive issues like urban waste. Environmental theatre, an arts-based approach that uses performance to communicate ecological themes, offers an alternative pedagogical tool that can foster deeper cognitive and emotional connections to environmental problems. Purpose. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of environmental theatre as a dual-purpose platform for enhancing public ecological awareness and mobilizing community action on urban waste management. Method. A qualitative case study methodology was employed, focusing on a series of public theatre performances addressing plastic waste in Bandung, Indonesia. Data were gathered through participant observation, post-performance semi-structured interviews with audience members (n=45), and a focus group discussion with the theatre troupe. A thematic analysis was used to identify key outcomes and audience responses. Results. The findings indicate that the immersive and narrative-based format of the theatre performances significantly increased audience members' emotional engagement with and intellectual understanding of the urban waste crisis. A substantial majority of interviewees (over 85%) reported a heightened sense of personal responsibility and expressed a stronger intention to adopt pro-environmental behaviours, such as waste segregation and reducing consumption. Environmental theatre serves as a highly effective and potent medium for both environmental education and social mobilization. Conclusion. By moving beyond simple information dissemination to create an embodied, affective experience, it successfully fosters the critical consciousness and motivational impetus required to translate awareness into tangible individual and collective action.

Abstract

Background. The concept of alam (nature) in Indonesian philosophical thought reflects a deep integration of ecological understanding, cultural wisdom, and spiritual values. Rooted in the diverse traditions of the Nusantara archipelago, alam embodies a worldview where the environment is not merely a physical space but a living system interconnected with human existence and morality. Despite its richness, the epistemological foundations of alam have received limited scholarly attention, particularly in relation to ecological philosophy. Purpose. This study aims to trace the roots of ecological epistemology in Indonesian thought by examining the cultural, historical, and philosophical constructions of alam across various local traditions. Method. A qualitative philosophical approach was employed, combining hermeneutic analysis of classical texts, oral traditions, and indigenous proverbs with comparative interpretation against contemporary ecological philosophy. Results. Findings reveal that the Nusantara concept of alam integrates cosmological balance, relational ethics, and community-based environmental stewardship. These elements parallel, and in some cases anticipate, modern sustainability principles while maintaining distinctive cultural expressions. Conclusion. The study concludes that ecological epistemology in Indonesian philosophy offers a valuable framework for rethinking environmental ethics in the global context, providing culturally rooted strategies for ecological resilience and sustainability.

Abstract

Background. In the disruption era, the rapid expansion of digital platforms has transformed communication, learning, and cultural exchange, creating both challenges and opportunities for preserving mother tongues. Globalized content consumption and dominant language use in digital spaces often marginalize minority languages, accelerating linguistic erosion. Purpose. This study aims to investigate the impact of digital platforms on mother tongue preservation, focusing on the balance between technological threats and revitalization potential. Method. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, combining literature review and case analysis of digital initiatives promoting local languages. Data were collected from scholarly publications, online communities, and interviews with language activists. Results. Findings reveal that while unregulated exposure to dominant languages can weaken intergenerational transmission, digital tools such as social media campaigns, e-learning applications, and digital archives offer innovative pathways for documentation, education, and community engagement. Conclusion. The study concludes that strategic integration of cultural values with technology can transform digital platforms into allies for mother tongue preservation. Policy support, community participation, and localized content production are critical to sustaining linguistic diversity in the digital age.

Abstract

Background. The global search for effective environmental ethics beyond dominant anthropocentric models has increased interest in alternative worldviews. Eastern philosophies, with their emphasis on balance and interconnectedness, offer a profound source of ecological wisdom for fostering a more sustainable human-nature relationship. Purpose. This study analyzes the core concept of ‘harmony’ within Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism and articulates its contribution to the contemporary framework of sustainable development. Method. The research employs a qualitative, philosophical-hermeneutic methodology, conducting a textual analysis of classical sources to distill ethical principles related to environmental harmony. Results. The findings reveal that foundational concepts like the Tao (natural flow), Paticcasamupp?da (interconnectedness), and Tian-Ren He Yi (unity of Heaven and Humanity) promote a non-anthropocentric, holistic ethic. This perspective values moderation and nature’s intrinsic worth, directly supporting the integrated goals of sustainable development. Conclusion. Eastern concepts of harmony provide a robust ethical foundation for sustainability. They foster an ethic of relational responsibility and long-term balance, offering a crucial alternative to purely utilitarian or rights-based environmental frameworks.

Abstract

Background. This research explores the intricate relationship between language and the environment by investigating the ecological vocabulary embedded within Indonesian regional languages. The archipelagic nature of Indonesia has fostered immense linguistic and cultural diversity, which includes a sophisticated, locally-grounded understanding of the natural world. However, this traditional ecological knowledge (TEK), encapsulated in unique lexicons, faces erosion due to language shifts and environmental degradation. Purpose. This study aims to conduct a semantic analysis of environmental vocabularies in selected Indonesian regional languages to document and understand the depth of ecological knowledge they contain. Method. Adopting a qualitative approach rooted in ecolinguistics and ethnosemantics, this study collects and analyzes lexical items related to flora, fauna, and natural phenomena. Results. The findings reveal a highly granular and nuanced classification system, reflecting a profound and long-standing interaction between local communities and their specific ecosystems. Conclusion. This research concludes that regional languages are critical reservoirs of ecological wisdom. The preservation of this linguistic diversity is paramount not only for cultural heritage but also for informing contemporary environmental conservation strategies.

Abstract

Background. Indigenous rituals have long played a vital role in shaping human–nature relationships, often embedding ecological knowledge within cultural practices. In many forest-dependent communities, these rituals function not only as spiritual expressions but also as informal governance systems regulating resource use, biodiversity conservation, and environmental stewardship. The growing pressures of modernization, land-use change, and climate variability raise concerns about the continuity of such traditions and their ecological implications. Purpose. This study aims to examine the performance of indigenous rituals and their contribution to forest ecosystem sustainability within local communities. Method. An ethnographic research design was employed, involving participant observation, in-depth interviews with ritual practitioners and community elders, and analysis of ritual artifacts and narratives. Fieldwork was conducted over six months in two forest-dependent communities known for their active ritual traditions. Results. Findings reveal that rituals act as socio-cultural mechanisms for enforcing sustainable harvesting norms, protecting sacred groves, and transmitting ecological values intergenerationally. However, external economic pressures and declining youth participation threaten their efficacy. Conclusion. The study concludes that integrating indigenous ritual knowledge into formal conservation policies can strengthen forest governance and cultural resilience. Recognition and empowerment of such practices are essential for holistic and culturally grounded ecosystem management strategies.

Abstract

Background. The rapid proliferation of emojis as visual symbols in global digital communication has transformed the way meaning, emotion, and grammar are expressed in online discourse. Once viewed merely as decorative icons, emojis have evolved into semiotic units that participate in syntactic and pragmatic structures across languages and cultures. Purpose. This study investigates how emojis contribute to semantic shifts and grammatical innovation in digital interaction, focusing on their function as modifiers, predicates, and discourse markers in written communication. The research aims to analyze the syntactic integration of emojis within linguistic systems and to explore how users employ them to construct meaning beyond traditional textual boundaries. Method. A qualitative linguistic approach combined with corpus-based discourse analysis was utilized to examine 10,000 social media posts collected from multilingual digital platforms, including Twitter, WhatsApp, and Instagram. Results. The findings reveal that emojis operate according to emerging syntactic patterns, functioning as replacements for verbs, adjectives, and punctuation while simultaneously encoding affective and contextual information. The study also identifies cross-cultural variations in emoji sequencing that parallel grammatical rules, suggesting the emergence of a visual-syntactic grammar in digital communication. The results demonstrate that emojis are no longer extralinguistic symbols but dynamic components of evolving global language practices. Conclusion. The study concludes that understanding the syntax of emojis provides critical insights into how digital communication fosters linguistic innovation, cultural hybridity, and multimodal literacy in the 21st century.

Abstract

Background. The rapid integration of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) into human cognitive processes has initiated a profound transformation in how consciousness and personal identity are conceptualized. As neural data become digitized, the boundaries between human cognition and machine computation blur, leading to the emergence of what can be described as the algorithmic self a hybrid consciousness co-produced by biological and artificial systems. Purpose. This research aims to examine how BCIs reshape the phenomenology of selfhood, agency, and memory by mediating the interaction between neural intention and algorithmic feedback. Method. The study employs a qualitative phenomenological design complemented by neuroscientific literature analysis, focusing on participants using non-invasive BCIs for communication, learning, and rehabilitation. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, reflective diaries, and neuro-ethical discourse mapping to identify cognitive and existential shifts in participants’ self-perception. Results. The findings reveal that BCI users experience fragmented yet extended forms of consciousness, where identity is continuously negotiated between embodied experience and algorithmic prediction. Participants reported increased cognitive augmentation but also existential dissonance, expressing uncertainty over the locus of agency and authorship of thought. Conclusion. The study concludes that the algorithmic self represents a new stage in human consciousness an emergent, co-dependent identity formed through neural–digital symbiosis. These findings call for an interdisciplinary rethinking of personhood, ethics, and autonomy in the age of neurotechnology.
