Abstract

The multireligious community life in Fakfak, West Papua, is an important
reflection of how local cultural values can support religious tolerance in
everyday life. This study aims to examine how multicultural education shapes
and strengthens religious tolerance in Otoweri Village, Tomage District, Fakfak
Regency. The method used was a qualitative approach with a case study
through interviews, observation, and documentation. The research results
show that community involvement in interfaith activities such as mutual
cooperation, community discussions, and joint celebrations of religious
holidays demonstrates a strong collective awareness of maintaining harmony.
Children are also actively involved in interfaith interactions through games and
group learning activities, demonstrating that the value of tolerance is instilled
from an early age. The local cultural concept of "One Stove, Three Stones" has
proven to be a key foundation for strengthening social ties between religious
communities. This research demonstrates that locality-based multicultural
education can be an effective strategy for building harmonious and prosperous
communities.
