Summary/Abstract: The anthropological and ethical disputes in some conservative Catholic circles often refer to the problem of gender equality, particularly in the educational process. They lead to a confrontation between traditional communities, on the one hand, and on the other hand, open or liberal ones. In this context, the article aims to indicate (1) the anthropological and ethical foundations of the education based on the principle of gender equality, and (2) educational demands that result from it. Further, (3) these fundamentals will be scrutinised against Catholic anthropological and ethical criticism.
