This article aims toconceptually and empirically analyze the implementation of PjBL in fostering tolerance characteramong elementary school students through a literature study approach. The method used is asystematic literature review of various scientific sources derived from research findings, books, andrelevant academic journals published within the last ten years. The results of the review indicate thatPjBL promotes social interaction, cooperation, empathy, and respect for differences throughcollaborative project activities. The processes of discussion, joint problem-solving, and roledistribution within projects provide opportunities for students to learn to value others’ opinions.Based on the literature findings, the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model contributes not only tocognitive development but also to the formation of tolerance character in elementary school students.
