What does it mean to be a man in America? Or a father? What should it mean? And how can we incorporate men more fully as partners in both child rearing and in the continued movement for gender equity?
Join us on February 9 to hear two Ashoka Fellows’ perspectives on these questions and more. Dr. Charles C. Daniels Jr. launched Father’s Uplift, the U.S.'s first mental health treatment facility for fathers and their families. Meanwhile, Gary Barker is a leading global voice in engaging men and boys in advancing gender equality and positive masculinities. He is the founder of Promundo and co-founder of MenEngage, a global alliance working in 70 countries
We’ll hear from them about what it takes to uplift fathers, cultivate healthy masculinity, and contend with the current backlash of a vocal minority of angry men.
The conversation will be about 30 minutes. Bring your questions!
