Understanding men and gender equity – A ParliGender event with Movember 

Standard

Time: 13:30 to 14:30
Date: Thursday 16 November 2023
Location: Online – via Teams

In this event, Sarah Sternberg, Global Masculinities Lead at Movember Foundation, will talk about:

  • Why when we talk about gender, we should be talking about boys and men (as well as girls, women and other genders).
  • Some areas of gender inequity that impact boys and men, with a focus on mental health and help-seeking.
  • What we’ve learned in 20 years at Movember about supporting men’s mental health.

Sarah Sternberg holds an MSc in Sociology and Gender Studies from LSE and has been working in gender equity in international development and health for the last 10 years. She is currently leading an initiative exploring masculinities online, and the role of influencers on young men’s mental health.
