‘Reverse Gender Gap’ in Tertiary Education in Southeast Asia:
Progress against Global Discourse
18 November 2022, 19:15-21:15 (JST)
6:15 to 8:15 (EDT, Washington, D.C.)
Generally speaking, the gender gap in education is understood as a problem of disparity between men and women in the sense that women have fewer educational opportunities and are placed in a disadvantageous situation. However, there is a ‘reverse gender gap’ phenomenon in which men have fewer educational opportunities than women in public universities. This research focuses on this ‘Reverse Gender Gap (RGG)’ phenomenon in tertiary education. In particular, this research aims to clarify the question of why the reverse gender gap in higher education has emerged since the early 2000s in Southeast Asia. This panel can understand the reverse gender gap phenomenon from two aspects. One is the phenomenon of women becoming more educated or the “feminization” of higher education, and the other is the phenomenon of “men’s disengagement from education” in Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines and Cambodia.
Key Words; Reverse Gender Gap, Gender Gap, Boy’s Disengagement from Education, Higher Education, Southeast Asia
