values are integrated into the History learning process. The method
used in this article is the study of libraries, the use of relevant sources
that are used as data sources expands the views and findings in the
article. The integration of multicultural education is an effort to
harmonize between materials, learning methods, and multicultural
values in accepting human differences and similarities that include
diversity, race, language, religion, and gender. Multiculturalism
education is a concept based on the phenomenon of globalization that
arises from technological developments and political, cultural, and
economic events. This multicultural education invites us to accept
difference as something natural in humans. Through history learning,
teachers can deliver historical material to students who are very closely
related to multicultural education, one example of which is the Jakarta
Charter material. The material of the Jakarta Charter can be said to
contain multicultural elements because in this material there is a sense
of togetherness and standing together high among fellow Indonesians
without regard to ethnic background, racial religion, and language.
The results of the study show that multicultural education can be
integrated into historical learning because learning contains materials
relevant to multicultural education. Thus, this article concludes that
multicultural education becomes one of the important concepts that
must be mastered by history teachers to present multicultural values to
each historical material in-depth, which will then make students have a
high spirit of tolerance in society and state
