ABSTRACT
This study aims to build a framework for the inclusion of gender issues in the Indonesian education system. Grounded from the ideas of global education, gender issues, framing by gender justice and equality, males and females as human beings and members of society can reach their fullest potential through education. As a qualitative case study research, it explores and analyzes the ideas and thoughts of selected Islamic university lecturers and Islamic high school teachers. Through delivering questionnaires, interviews, and providing focus group discussions, its results show the existing realities of the globalizing world and show that gender issues have been positively endorsed among the respondents. Equal access and opportunity in education, as well as equal treatment for both sexes, is not a problem at all. A little note emerges on the discussion of the gender division of labor, which should consider women’s nature. However, the overall findings show the emergence of an Islamic moderate perspective on gender justice and equality in education.
