Modern society is increasingly striving for equality, rights and freedom. Sex equality and gender roles are the aspirations of historical struggles for women's rights that have built their solid foundations in the feminist movement. The fight for fundamental human rights has resulted in the documents that guide today's society. Everyone has the same right to live, education, freedom, participation in public, political and cultural life, regardless of gender, age, religion or race. In order to familiarize the students with the topic of gender equality, the curricula of the cross-curricular topics Health and Citizenship Education were analyzed, as well as the curriculum of the Health Education in order to compare and find that they complement each other and that they contain key contents that make it easier for the teacher to plan and programming the content of this topic. Interviews with the staff of the “Brod” association resulted in a clearer picture of the functioning of non-governmental organizations and the function of the laws that protect vulnerable groups and how they help or delay the implementation of the programs. The analysis of the two curricula revealed that the Cross Curriculum Health (2019) does not appear as a stand-alone module, domain of sex/ gender equality and responsible sexual behavior, but is therefore integrated into other domains, not covering all contents and outcomes planned in the Curriculum Health Education (2013). The Human Rights Curriculum domain of the cross-curricular theme Citizenship Education (2019) implies the promotion and protection of human rights that can be directly linked to the topic of this paper. With the educational expectations of the Human Rights domain, students embrace diversity as the basis of each individual's identity in the community, and develop awareness and sensitivity for others in their environment. In addition to teaching students about the topic, schools also introduce gender mainstreaming within their community, setting an example for students. The role of the teacher is paramount here. As a professional person who imparts his knowledge and attitudes and opinions, is necessary to work on himself and learn all his life to develop his competences.
