ManAnew Men’s
The ManAnew Men’s Circle Program offers men a place to build healthy masculinity and social capital, develop practical skills, and access training, resources, and support to navigate life’s continually evolving realities.
While many programs rightly focus on women’s empowerment, men also need spaces for social, emotional, and psychological growth. As societies advance toward gender equality, masculinity and gender roles require thoughtful reappraisal, reorientation, and resocialisation so that both pillars of society remain strong.
The ManAnew Men’s Circle Program, therefore, encourages men to self-appraise, unlearn and relearn, refine their character, and strengthen themselves to embody healthier, more progressive expressions of masculinity. Our programs include structured meetings, community hangouts, exercise routines, conferences, and support networks addressing emotional, career, financial, and marital well-being.
The program promotes the virtues of healthy masculinity while confronting the harms of toxic masculinity, often expressed through neglect of personal health, unproductive stoicism, destructive risk-taking, violence against women, emotional disconnection, unhealthy dominance, sexual abuse, and promiscuity. In response, we inspire commitment to self-respect, responsible health practices, constructive risk-taking, emotional intelligence, zero violence against women and children, sexual integrity, and healthier relationships.
We encourage men to go beyond providing only food and school fees, or protecting only from hunger and lack. True responsibility also involves emotional presence, moral leadership, and active participation in building stable families and thriving communities.
Campaign Focus:
- Share stories of men and boys, highlighting the realities and challenges of modern manhood and boyhood.
