Sri Sukma Yanti (2026). Community Efforts in Preserving the Inafi Tradition in Simeulue Regency. Faculty of Teacher Training and Education. [Undergraduate Thesis. Syiah Kuala University]. Supervised by Dr. Sanusi, S.Pd., M.Si and Ridayani, S.H., M.H. Inafi is an oral tradition of the people of Simeulue Regency that has been passed down from generation to generation and contains stories, messages, advice, and life values related to Smong as the local wisdom of the Simeulue community. The development of the times, modernization, and technological advances have led to a decline in younger generations' interest in the Inafi tradition. This study addresses two research questions: (1) how the community preserves the Inafi tradition in Simeulue Regency, and (2) what factors support and hinder the preservation of the Inafi tradition. The study aims to describe the community's efforts to preserve the Inafi tradition and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors affecting its preservation. This research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews and documentation involving traditional leaders, artists, community members, and the younger generation. The findings indicate that the preservation of the Inafi tradition is carried out through the oral transmission of stories from parents to their children, the dissemination of Inafi by traditional leaders and artists to the community and younger generations, and the transmission of the historical, moral, and local wisdom values embedded in the tradition. The supporting factors include public awareness of the importance of preserving the tradition, the active role of traditional leaders and artists, and the enduring historical and local wisdom values upheld by the community. Meanwhile, the inhibiting factors include the influence of modernization, the declining interest of younger generations in learning the Inafi tradition, and the limited documentation of the oral tradition. In conclusion, the Inafi tradition continues to be preserved through intergenerational transmission; however, more sustainable preservation efforts are needed to ensure that it remains recognized and is passed on to future generations.
