Goal of the Activity

The goal of this activity was to raise awareness about the fact that men's mental health issues are often overlooked, as well as to learn about the main mental health issues that men deal with and how they can be overcome. 

Description

Have you ever been told to "man up"? Have you ever heard "boys don't cry"? It's time to end the stigma surrounding men's mental health!

In high-income countries, three times as many men as women die by suicide, according to a World Health Organization report.

Depression and suicide are ranked as the leading causes of death among men; yet, they still find it difficult to open up about mental health or seek treatment.

Join us on an online talk held by a certified psychologist and let's try and end the stigma surrounding men's mental health.
