Cultural Parenting Based on Religion and Culture In Indonesia from an SDG Perspective: A Literature Review

Abstract

Introduction: Parenting is influenced by the context in which parents live and grow up. Objective: This paper explores the Indonesian context and its impact on Indonesian parents’ parenting values and behaviour, focusing on how these practices align with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Method: This article uses a systematic literature review. Eight hundred ten articles were gathered from the Web of Science (WoS), Scopus, ScienceDirect, and SAGE databases. The PRISMA-ScR protocol was used as a guide and submitted to OSF. Eight articles were included in this review based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results and Discussion: Eight articles were included in this review based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results were grouped into three categories: 1) cultural context in Indonesia was similar to religion and cultural context; 2) cultural-religion parenting values and beliefs as a control; and 3) authoritarian parenting behaviour as expected in Indonesia. Research Implications: Future research should use variation keywords to gather data about Indonesia's context, explore more cultural values and beliefs in Indonesia, and research more about Indonesia's parenting behaviour characteristics. By highlighting these areas, this research aligns with the SDGs by promoting inclusive, culturally sensitive education, supporting social equality, and fostering values that contribute to peaceful and cohesive communities in Indonesia.
