Every year, when International Women’s Day rolls around, there are the inevitable, unoriginal cries of “well...when’s International Men’s Day??”
Well, it very much exists, it takes place today (November 19) and it’s garnered increasing attention in recent years as the world pays more attention to male-centric issues.
As International Men’s Day 2024 arrives, organisations across the UK are reflecting on how to better support men in the workplace, particularly regarding mental health and wellbeing. With research revealing that men are significantly less likely to seek help for mental health issues and that the global suicide rate is more than twice as high among men than women, the need for workplace strategies to address these challenges is clear.
This year’s International Men’s Day theme highlights the importance of Positive Male Role Models and fostering open conversations about men’s wellbeing.
