Abstract

The religious approach has recently become an alternative in disaster mitigation. Religion is not only a theological foundation, but also complements the scientific approach in preventing and dealing with disasters. One of them is in disaster literacy based on pesantren in Narmada, Lombok, which is a disaster-prone area. The theological approach is optimized in the environmental and disaster literacy movement through environmental education at the Nurul Haramain Islamic Boarding School which is known as an environmentally friendly Islamic Boarding School. This article discusses the practice of green education in Islamic boarding schools as part of disaster literacy efforts in Lombok. The research was conducted with qualitative methods. Collecting data through observation, interviews and documentation studies. Research informants include pesantren administrators, Non-Governmental Organizations and the community which are determined by purposive sampling. Data analysis used interactive models, namely by data reduction, display and drawing conclusions. The results showed that the practice of green education in the Nurul Haramain Islamic Boarding School was implemented through several programs including integrated farming, waste management, open-air schools, training of facilitators for students and the reforestation movement by planting trees. This activity is inseparable from the role of Tuan Guru Hasanain who applies an eco-theological approach through the internalization of religious interpretations that support disaster literacy. Tuan Guru has an important position for the people of Lombok, who are predominantly Muslim, so that the literacy program can be accepted by the community. This shows that religion plays a role as an effective alternative in disaster literacy in society.
