Aims

The Indonesian Journal of Socio-Cultural Learning aims to advance scholarly understanding of learning as a socio-cultural process shaped by interactions among individuals, communities, cultures, institutions, and broader social contexts.

The journal provides a platform for interdisciplinary research examining how learning processes are influenced by cultural practices, social relations, local knowledge, identities, communities, and changing educational environments.

The journal seeks to:

1. advance theoretical and empirical scholarship on socio-cultural dimensions of learning and education;

2. promote interdisciplinary research connecting education, culture, society, and community;

3. examine the role of cultural knowledge, local wisdom, and social practices in learning processes;

4. encourage research on culturally responsive, contextual, inclusive, and community-based learning;

5. explore the relationship between education, cultural transformation, social change, and human development; and

6. facilitate international scholarly dialogue on socio-cultural approaches to learning across diverse educational and cultural contexts.
