“…Further studies recommended by the researcher are to investigate risk assessments to children in other islands or regions with a long story of conflicts or intolerance, such as Aceh, Papua, and Maluku. As explained by many scholars in Indonesia, religious radicalism in the country is strongly connected to terrorist acts (Mahfud et al, 2018;Zulkarnain & Purnama, 2016). Moreover, studies on religious tolerance in Indonesia by the National Ministry of Religious Affairs show Religious Tolerance Indexes as follow: 72.20 in 2017, 70.90 in 2018, 73.83 in 2019, and 67.46 in 2020 (considered as high tolerance) (Table 10), yet some regions such as Aceh and Papua need an improvement (Ministry of Religious Affairs, 2020).…”

The long history of conflict in Poso, Indonesia, causes the trauma of people living in the area, including children. This study aims to examine the risks and needs of children raised amongst terrorist organizations in Poso. 33 children whose parents were involved in terrorist groups were assessed in this study and analyzed using quantitative and qualitative methods. The findings show that the average risk is 1.35, which is at low risk. Moreover, they need to be addressed to prevent them from joining terrorist groups.

This study discusses the potential of Islamic boarding schools in the deradicalization of Indonesian society through a balanced education system between religion and the state. This study tries to look at the strategy of deradicalization of religious extremism in Indonesia, especially in Islamic boarding schools. Even though the Islamic Boarding School is a place for studying Islam, it does not mean that it cannot be separated from extreme understandings that sometimes act in the name of religion. Allegedly, one of the causes is an unbalanced education system. A cohesive, directed and planned/organized education system can produce responsible citizens, whereas if a fragmented education system naturally results in confused citizens and without direction, and even tend to be apathetic. This study aims to analyze the influence and education system in several pesantren to prevent radicalism for students at the High School level in Indonesia. The method used in this research is a field study with a qualitative approach using purposive sampling in recording pesantren which has a salafiah and modern curriculum. Data collection is done through observation. The analysis is done by collecting, presenting, reducing, and drawing conclusions. The results of this study prove that the education system and the role of the Kiai have a positive impact on counteracting religious radicalism by combining Islamic and state education. This research implies that the management system in Islamic boarding schools can establish intensive partnerships with the government in various aspects of politics, culture, and economy. It should be ruled out that boarding schools are included in education which is sometimes marginalized by the government because sometimes it is considered inclusive. Therefore, every effort to overcome the problem of radical understanding in the name of religion is not possible to achieve significant results, unless there is a cohesive education system between the institution and the government.

“…Faktor eksternal ini bisa dari guru maupun informasi media eletronik maupun media sosial yang saat ini merambah di dunia remaja. Kedua, faktor internal yaitu, dorongan kuat dari dirinya sendiri untuk berbuat radikal dan ekstrim (Mahfud, Prasetyawati, Wahyuddin, Agustin, & Sukmawati, 2018). Tidak sedikit masjid kampus yang membuat kegiatan keagamaan untuk memperdalam wawasan keagamaan bagi mahasiswa, bahkan ada sebagian kampus yang mewajibkan mahasiswa barunya untuk mengikuti kegiatan mentoring agama.…”
