** Mental Health, the Male Psyche and Gender Justice: Lessons for Life After Covid-19
------------------------------------------------------------


** Tuesday, 24 November 2020 – 3PM to 5PM CAT
------------------------------------------------------------

SAfAIDS and Sonke Gender Justice invite you to this jointly hosted roundtable that is timely and worth focusing on. Addressing mental health boldly, in the narrative of transforming men and boys into protagonists for women’s and girl’s rights, needs visibility. Mental health remains a taboo, and a shied away conversation, often avoided when addressing patriarchy, toxic masculinities, VAWG and femicide, and in generic ‘being a man’ conversations. The Roundtable seeks to break boundaries of silence, to enable men’s and boys’ appreciation of the need to safeguard their mental health, and thus reduce the risk of their actions hindering the rights and well-being of women and girls.
