Political education has an important role in building political awareness, active participation, and a deep understanding of the political process among the people. Political parties, as the main actors in the Indonesian political system, have great responsibility and potential in carrying out political education to the public. This study aims to analyze the role of political parties in implementing political education in the Indonesian political system. The research method used is qualitative research with a descriptive approach. The results of this study indicate that political parties have a significant role in implementing political education in Indonesia. They can play the role of intermediary between government and society in disseminating objective political information, promoting political participation, and increasing public understanding of democratic principles, political rights, and political decision-making processes . However, this research also reveals that there are challenges and obstacles in implementing effective political education by political parties. Some of the challenges faced include a lack of resources, lack of awareness of political parties on the importance of political education, and political polarization that affects efforts to make political education inclusive and non-biased.
