The indigenous knowledge of the Dayak Paramasan in Indonesia holds the potential for environmental sustainability. This study aims to assess an environmental education framework grounded in the local wisdom of the Paramasan Dayak tribe. A survey was conducted among 300 individuals, including traditional leaders and members of indigenous communities residing in the Paramasan Subdistrict, Indonesia. Data collection occurred from May 2023 to July 2023 and was analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The findings indicate a significant association between indigenous values, local expertise, and community cohesion concerning environmental education. Local wisdom includes local skills, values, and community solidarity, which are crucial for environmental education. Local skills, like farming and hunting, have a significant impact on environmental protection. Passing down knowledge to younger generations needs improvement. Limited local resources create a gap between generations, but some believe traditional leaders can safeguard nature without formal education. Further exploration of implementing environmental education models within school settings will offer valuable insights for Indigenous communities and society, fostering environmentally conscious behaviors.
