Vision and Mission of the Ministry of Education actually has the same spirit with the Presidential Instruction No. 9 Year 2000 on Gender Mainstreaming in National Development which states that the entire development process of gender mainstreaming education needs to be done with due regard to justice and gender equality dimension into every process of planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of all policies and programs on various areas of life and sectors development.

To reinforce the commitment of the Ministry of National Education in doing PUG Education Sector, in the year 2008 has been assigned the Ministry of National Education Regulation No.. 84 of 2008 on Gender Mainstreaming Guidelines for the Education Sector, although the programs, mainstreaming gender in education in the Ministry of National Education has been conducted since 2003. This regulation is expected to provide direction for policy makers at central and local government and education practitioners in implementing gender mainstreaming in education.

Gender mainstreaming in education at the Ministry of National Education implemented through five main strategies, namely, (1) increasing capacity for policy makers in each major unit, (2) increasing the capacity of educational planners in preparing planning and gender responsive budgeting; (3) perform cooperation with women's studies center / gender in Higher Education in reviewing and finding gender issues in each region, (4) cooperate with the orsos, organizations, and NGOs in developing a model of gender equitable education in family and society, and (5 ) develop media Communication, Information and Education.

Even in terms of access, participation rates at all levels of education is equal between men and women as indicated by the gender parity index approaching 1.0. Nevertheless depth study to identify gender gaps are not only focused on achievement differences between men and women but also the gap caused by other factors such as socioeconomic status, cultural background, and geography.

Successful implementation of gender mainstreaming in education is largely determined by the commitment of policy makers, both at central and local governments (provincial / district / city) are realized in: (1) gender responsive policies; (2) human resource support as gender focal points education; (3) institutional support, and (4) budgetary support, either through the State Budget and Budgets provincial / district / city.

On this occasion, I urge support of the provincial government and district / city to jointly hand in hand and realize the vision and mission through support of national education budgets and policies, affirmative. I am sure, the realization of the vision and mission in an optimal, justice and gender equality in education will be realized.
