Abstract
Religious moderation is a national concern in realizing a harmonious and peaceful life of the Indonesian people. This research was conducted to answer three questions, namely: what is the background of the need for religious moderation? what is the concept of religious moderation? and how to implement religious moderation? This research was conducted at UIN Walisongo Semarang. The data was obtained through interviews with university leaders, managers of religious moderation house, lecturers in Islamic and religious moderation courses, and students studied these subjects. The data collected were analyzed descriptively qualitatively. The results show that: (1) Religious moderation education is a preventive measure, in order to suppress the occurrence of acts of radicalism and terrorism, which often use youth. (2) Religious moderation education at UIN Walisongo is carried out holistically in order to create a harmonious and peaceful academic atmosphere under the constraints of the house of moderation. (3) The implementation of religious moderation is carried out through temporary meetings such as seminars and training, and 'Islam and religious moderation' lectures which are applied to all students.
