- Abstract
Gender inequity faced by women is partly caused by gender inequality that leads to differentiation of women’s role in society where women must bear direct consequences of the differentiation such as marginalization, violence and excessive workload. Gender awareness education aims to realize and develop the mindset, attitudes and behavior of families in building justice, equality and equal partnerships between men and women, child protection and elimination of domestic violence. Gender awareness education hopes that it will have an impact on understanding gender and can be applied in everyday life, including social life, economy, education, health and the realization of a harmonious and quality family so that the role of women can be optimized. This study employed a qualitative research with descriptive methods. A case study approach was employed in this study. A case study is in-depth or intensive research on one member of a target group as the subject of research.The results of this study found the technical implementation of gender awareness education. The packaged material was delivered by means of discussion or simulation, as well as the implications of gender awareness education seen from the perspective of Education, Self, Family, Social Society, Health and Politics.
