Abstract

Environmental degradation is a global challenge that requires solutions from various perspectives, including religion. Islamic boarding schools, as Islamic educational institutions, have great potential to instill religious-based environmental values (ecotheology). However, there has not been much research that deeply examines how these ecotheological values are internalized and translated into concrete actions in shaping the sustainable character of students. The purpose of this study is to analyze the strategies of Al-Amien Prenduan Islamic boarding school in fostering sustainable ecological awareness among students. To understand the social interactions of students in building environmentally conscious character at Al-Amien Prenduan Islamic Boarding School and to analyze the opportunities and challenges of Al-Amien Islamic Boarding School in building eco-theology-based environmentally conscious character. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study type. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with pesantren caregivers (kiai), ustadz/ustadzah, administrators, and santri, as well as documentation studies. The data were analyzed interactively through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of this study indicate that Al-Amien Prenduan Islamic Boarding School's strategy in fostering sustainable ecological awareness among students is through the boarding school curriculum, the utilization of extracurricular activities, and the development of boarding school entrepreneurship. The social interaction of students in building environmental awareness at the Al-Amien Prenduan Islamic boarding school with an innovative and integrated educational approach will contribute significantly to efforts to create a generation that is not only academically intelligent but also highly concerned about the environment and its surroundings. Opportunities arise from the synergy between character education, religious values, and environmental awareness among students and the challenges faced by Al-Amien Prenduan Islamic Boarding School due to inconsistencies in the teaching and implementation of the values expected by teachers for students.
