The Role of Adiwiyata Extracurricular Activities in Shaping Environmentally Friendly Behavior in Students

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of Adiwiyata-based extracurricular activities in shaping environmentally friendly behavior among students. The research employs a qualitative approach through a literature review method by examining various scientific articles, policy documents, and previous studies related to environmental education and school-based sustainability programs. The findings indicate that Adiwiyata extracurricular activities contribute significantly to the development of students’ ecological awareness, pro-environmental attitudes, and sustainable habits through experiential learning, participatory activities, and value internalization processes. Moreover, these activities function as a strategic medium for integrating environmental values into students’ daily practices, both inside and outside the school environment. This study concludes that Adiwiyata extracurricular programs play a crucial role in fostering environmentally responsible behavior and supporting the formation of environmentally literate generations in the context of sustainable education.
