The author stated that in Polish and Ukrainian scientific literature, the problem of gender studies in education is analyzed, first of all, from the perspective of interdisciplinarity, which makes it dependent on theoretical principles and methodological standards adopted in a particular area. Secondly, the need for such studies was caused because of the lack of works, which subject is the very methodology and methods of gender mainstreaming in education, potential systematic self-reflection and critical research methods. The attention was paid to Feminist Academy as the most recent instance of the nongovernmental organization’s engagement in the gender studies. This initiative organized by Feminoteka Foundation since 2012 brings together scholars and activists to talk about current issues related to gender. Another important stream of the gender education in Poland are workshops and antidiscrimi-nation educational activities. Another organization which activities go beyond conducting gender workshops is Association for the Antidiscrimination Education (Towarzystwo Educkacji Anty-dysrkriminacyjne–TEA). The Association that was established in 2009 defines its mission as developing and disseminating antidiscriminatory education, so very person creates the world free from discrimination and violence (Towarzystwo Educkacji Antydysrkriminacyjne, 2009). Also, some projects, programs and other means of promoting gender access to education have been studied.
