Revitalizing Peace Values in the Dimensions of Local Wisdom in Papua (Case Study: Sentani)

Abstract

Local wisdom can be a keyword in modern society where social and cultural diversity challenges the existence of society as a whole. The Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia is formed by territories that possess a variety of unique characteristics, languages, values, and symbols that originate from the culture of the Indonesian people. The results showed that good social relations in the Sentani Indigenous community are inseparable from customary law, which has been respected and upheld by indigenous peoples. The values of peace in local wisdom must be maintained and developed in a dynamic concept. As a concept, local wisdom is always open to the possibility of challenges and opportunities.
