Men, Gender, and Healthy Masculinities

11th October Event Flyer

What does 'gender' have to do with men? How might men have a role in building gender equality? How we engage men in this work? What do people mean by 'toxic masculinity', and is it a useful phrase? What do we want instead? How do we encourage healthy masculinities among men and boys?

Dr Michael Flood's recent talk explored these issues, in a community discussion hosted by Wyndham City and Hobson’s Bay City Council in Laverton, Melbourne, Australia. Michael's slides from the event are available here.

Matt Tyler, Executive Director of the Men's Project at Jesuit Social Services, spoke as well. His slides are available here.
