Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze civic education against acts of intolerance in vocational schools, with a focus on the Department of Automotive Engineering in Jayapura. Common forms of intolerance, including discrimination, harassment, and exclusion based on ethnicity, religion, race, or culture, are the primary focus. Using a quantitative descriptive survey method, 45 students from Class X were selected as respondents through purposive sampling. The research instrument consisted of 18 questions covering seven categories of intolerance. The survey data was analyzed descriptively to reveal the type and frequency of intolerance experienced by students. The results of the study show that most students in vocational schools experience acts of intolerance, especially verbal insults and religion-based intolerance. Verbal insults often involve derogatory comments or attitudes related to religious differences, while religion-based intolerance is manifested through a lack of respect for different beliefs or practices. The study also identified a lack of understanding and awareness of the importance of respecting differences as a key factor in driving intolerance. This problem is exacerbated by the absence of formal education on diversity and tolerance in the school curriculum. Students expressed the need for more educational initiatives on tolerance and diversity in schools and support equality and solidarity efforts, which can foster respect across diverse backgrounds. These efforts are expected to reduce intolerance and promote a more inclusive and unified school environment.
