Abstract
Gender equality and justice remain challenge in development until now. Central Lombok Regency is one of the regencies in Indonesia that has made gender mainstreaming a regional mission listed in the Regional Medium-Term Development Plan 2016-2021. However, gender disparities still occur, including in the education sector. Therefore, this study aims to identify the implementation of government programs related to gender mainstreaming, particularly in education; and analyzing the causes of gender inequality in the education sector in Central Lombok Regency. Literature Review of government documents such as the Regional Medium-Term Development Plan 2016-2021, the 2016 and 2018 Education Office Strategic Plans, and the 2018 Education Office Work Plan were conducted. The result shows that the programs by the Education Office are still general and tend to be implicit so that they do not clearly and specifically describe gender responsive education.
