Political education is crucial for fostering a critical and democratically responsible young generation. In Indonesia, the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5), with the theme “Suara Demokrasi” aims to improve students’ political literacy in secondary schools. This study focuses on designing a valid and practical political education model to address challenges in P5 implementation. Using the ADDIE development model within a Research and Development (R&D) framework, the study involved expert validation and limited trials with six teachers and thirty students. Expert validation averaged 3,5 or 87 %, categorizing the model as very valid, while practicality scores were 85 % from teachers and 82 % from students. These results directly demonstrate that the Inclusive Democracy Education Model (In-DEMO), which integrates Project-Based, Meaningful, and Transformative Learning, is effective and ready for classroom application. Thus, this research advances a contextual and inclusive political education model that supports the Merdeka Curriculum’s goals of enhancing students’ civic literacy. © 2025; Los autores.
