Abstract. Digital storytelling is a method of telling stories using digital media. This method can be used for educational purposes including environmental education to support sustainability mindset. This study aimed to explore the use of digital storytelling for environmental education on Youtube in the context of social forestry in Indonesia. The research method used was Focus Group Discussion (FGD) and analyses using thematic coding. The findings from 15 professionals and experts in 3 FGD sessions showed that digital storytelling with Youtube can be an effective tool for environmental education. This is because YouTube as a digital storytelling media captures the attention of viewers, helps them understand complex environmental concepts, and promotes alignment to support sustainability. Digital storytelling in YouTube can be used to build relationships and collaboration among viewers in local and regional scope.
