This study aims to present the results of a content analysis of gender-responsive values that have been incorporated into non-formal education leadership courses. These courses play a crucial role in preparing prospective non-formal education leaders who are gender-aware and capable of addressing gender-related challenges in educational contexts. The Non-formal Education Leadership course is a vital component in nurturing high-quality leaders in the field of non-formal education. Integrating gender-responsive values into the curriculum of this course is of paramount importance to achieve inclusive and sustainable leadership. The study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing document analysis to examine the syllabus, teaching materials, and teaching methods of non-formal education leadership course documents. The research focuses on developing gender-responsive content values within non-formal education leadership teaching materials, including understanding gender roles in leadership, promoting gender equality in education, dismantling gender stereotypes, and empowering women within the educational context. The study's findings demonstrate that gender-responsive values are thoughtfully integrated into the non-formal education leadership course, aligning with the course's competency objectives and emphasizing the importance of diversity. The syllabus, structured around teaching materials, addresses gender issues in educational leadership and provides relevant case examples. The teaching methods employed facilitate open discussions and reflections on gender matters, encouraging students to adopt inclusive and gender-sensitive perspectives. Moreover, the study highlights efforts made to promote women's participation and empowerment within the context of educational leadership. The non-formal education leadership courses effectively incorporate gender-responsive values that are relevant and significant.
