Data collection techniques are carried out by collecting various documents related to the focus of research.

Based on the discussion and analysis in several chapters above, the results of this study are concluded as follows: Tolerance is one of the important attitudes in forming a peaceful and serene life to build a just, prosperous, developed and prosperous society. Tolerance has been a culture of the Indonesian nation since time immemorial, and this attitude is increasingly needed and must be strengthened in the modern era when Indonesian society is more diverse and faces challenges from various ideologies and foreign cultures. One strategic and important approach in building tolerance and preventing divisive identity politics is through local wisdom, namely the values that live and are practiced by tribal communities in the archipelago, such as the Banjar community in Kuala Tungkal Jambi and the Lampung Pepadun community in Tulang Bawang Lampung. One of the traditions of local wisdom of the Banjar people in Kuala Tungkal Jambi refers to or greets other groups outside the Banjar tribe with the term "Urang Kita" or "Our Brothers". With this expression, the Banjar tribe calls or mentions and acknowledges the existence of other tribes, but they are still called as "Brothers". Other groups outside the Banjar tribe can be Malays, Bugis, Javanese, Batak, etc., both Muslim and non-Muslim. While the tradition of local wisdom of the Lampung tribe is in the values of life, especially "Pi'il Pesenggiri", which teaches to respect guests, protect and require honor as a condition for doing good. Committing bad or unethical acts is considered a violation of self-esteem or "pi'il", therefore guests or other groups should be protected or respected. Tolerant attitudes must continue to be built and strengthened as a basis for realizing a just, prosperous, prosperous country within the framework of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia that is peaceful and upholds human values.
