Summary/Abstract: The management of gender equality in education is crucial for fostering inclusive and equitable learning environments. Effective policies and practices are essential to address and eliminate gender disparities. Key strategies include the development and implementation of non-discriminatory curricula, teacher training programs that emphasize gender sensitivity, and the establishment of safe and inclusive school environments. International frameworks, such as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) and the Beijing Declaration, have significantly influenced national policies. However, challenges remain in the consistent application and enforcement of these policies. Successful practices involve comprehensive approaches that integrate cross-government cooperation, adequate funding, and community engagement. Addressing issues such as school-related gender-based violence and early pregnancy is critical. By promoting gender equality through education, societies can ensure that all students, regardless of gender, have equal opportunities to succeed and contribute to their communities.
