This study explores in-depth information about the formation of pro-environmental behaviour and students' social responsibility through the Adiwiyata program in Indonesia. This study employed a qualitative method using observation, interviews, and documentation as the data collection techniques. The study was conducted at a senior high school in Pontianak; participants were the school principal, the Adiwiyata builder, the Adiwiyata trainer, two teachers, and four students. In contrast to the majority of green schools in Indonesia, the findings of this research show that the implementation of the Adiwiyata program at SMA (Senior High School) 8 Pontianak, emphasises solving environmental problems responsibly, shaping student behaviour to be pro-environmental, and becoming environmental cadres. This study is expected to contribute to the formation of students' character to carry out environmental conservation efforts responsible for maintaining green ecology for present and future generations.
