Abstract: This study examines the characteristics and roles of gebleg renteng batik with regards to the creative economy-based cultural preservation strategies in Kulon Progo District and identifies the supporting factors and challenges of the cultural preservation efforts. Employing the qualitative method, the study took place in several small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Kulon Progo District, namely Batik Faras SME, Batik Sembung SME, and Batik Sinar Abadi SME. The data collection methods used include observations, interviews, documentation, and literature review, and the inductive reasoning was selected as the data analysis method, involving analyzing the data to drawing a conclusion. Gebleg renteng batik pattern is characterized as having positive philosophical values that can be applied in education by instilling the values of preserving local wisdom, building the spirit of cooperation, developing the sense of caring for each other and the environment, developing the drive for learning, and building perserverance, optimism to reach one’s dream, independence as well as self confidence into the students. Gebleg renteng batik has two important educative roles, namely cultural role, to preserve the culture as part of identity, and economic role, to stimulate creativity in the development of gebleg renteng batik to contribute to the local economy through a creative economy in batik SMEs. The supporting factors in the preservation of gebleg renteng batik is the strong commitment of the local government, while the challenges lie in the human resources with only a few young people involved in batik making and in the limited training available.
