Abstract

The background of the study is the increasing damage to the environment and the importance of the education role to develop environmental care characters for high school students. The research purpose was to explain the Positive Character Camp (PCC) program to improve the environmental care character for high school students. The program was an alternative activity to develop students' character. The research used qualitative studies to investigate students' experiences in the program. The data was collected through direct observation, interviews and field documentation and analysed with descriptive approach.
