Equimundo's State of UK Men 2025-done in p'ship with Beyond Equality-reveals high levels of political distrust, romantic disenchantment & support for gender regressive ideology. However, #UK men also find meaning in friendship, fatherhood, & community equimundo.org/report-launch-…

Gray Barker, co-founder and CEO of @equimundo_org has been working for decades to build a counter to the manosphere attitude. His vision replaces the increasingly regressive view of manhood with one based on vulnerability and kindness. #FuturePerfect25 vox.com/future-perfect/46921…

It’s been my pleasure to attend the Generation Gender Programme in Rwanda, which wraps up today. 
After five impactful years, I’m truly grateful to have been part of this journey. I’ve learned so much and would like to thank all the organizations that trusted me to use my social media platforms to spread awareness about this important initiative. Special thanks to @AfriYAN_Rwanda, @rwamrec, and @HDIRwanda for their incredible work and support. This programme has played a vital role in helping young people understand gender, gender justice, tackling harmful gender norms, and ending GBV (Gender-Based Violence). #GenerationGender #YouthVoices

The State of American Men 2025 is a groundbreaking new study that offers an unflinching, data-driven look at the emotional, economic, and cultural pressures facing American men. equimundo.org/resources/stat… @equimundo_org

In the global development space, the focus on empowering girls is vital and must continue. But research shows the #boy child also faces unique vulnerabilities that, if ignored, can have long-term consequences for families and communities. In 2020, UNESCO reported that of the 259 million children and youth out of school worldwide, 132 million were boys, and #boys were more likely to repeat primary grades in 130 out of 142 countries (UNESCO, 2020). Supporting boys doesn’t take away from girls’ empowerment, it strengthens it. Healthy, educated, emotionally balanced boys grow into men who are better partners, fathers, and community leaders. The call is simple: Let’s give boys the same intentional mentorship, emotional support, and opportunities to dream that we fight for girls to have. A truly equal future demands it. #positivemasculinity #boyschampions #boysneedtobeheard #BoyChildMatters #LeaveNoOneBehind #DevelopmentForAll

Fantastic study on the state of American Men by @equimundo_org! "Men aren’t in crisis because of who they are — but because of what they lack. Economic insecurity, isolation, and harmful norms are driving a dangerous mix of despair and grievance." Toplines below 👇

Young men are told that being “strong” means controlling sex, money & plans. But real strength is asking, not assuming. Listening, not just leading. Planning with, not for. Strong love is built on respect & shared decisions. Create space, not pressure. #BiteBro #NanjyeNdiUmuBro

JUST LAUNCHED: What does it mean to be a man in #US today? Our newest report cuts through the noise with data that reveals the emotional, cultural, & economic realities shaping the lives of American men in 2025. This isn’t just a study, it’s a call for change. 🚨86% of men say being a provider defines manhood 🚨 Financial stress = 16x higher risk of suicidal thoughts 🚨 The “Man Box” is growing — and it’s costing lives 🚨 Over half of men feel unknown. Isolated. Alone. Men are not broken, but our systems are. It’s time to rewrite the story. One rooted in care, connection, and equity. 📥 Download the #StateOfAmericanMen2025 report bit.ly/state-of-american-men…

Grateful to all who joined this year’s #FathersDayWeekofAction! From real talk on paid leave, child care & fatherhood to honoring everyday dads with @Equimundo_org—we’re in this fight alongside moms to push for policy solutions that will help all families thrive.

Excited to join @equimundo_org, @4kira4moms & Joe Gonzales for a special #FathersDay Week of Action #FiresideChat hosted by the @DadsCaucus. We’re talking about the State of America’s Men & Dads—and how pro-family policies can help working families thrive. nitter.net/i/broadcasts/1RDxlzqPL…

Join us and @MomsFirstUS in #NYC tomorrow — or virtually — to hear from our CEO Gary Barker, Jonathan Haidt, Chasen Buttigieg & others on the subject of #fatherhood in the era of disconnection. #MenCare #ModernFatherhood #FatherhoodSummit #FathersInFocus momsfirst.us/fatherhood/

In light of all the questions and concerns surrounding boys’ growing disconnection, I’m pleased to join Jenna Arnold on the Let's Begin Podcast for a deep dive for parents into the binary riddled limitations of our Man Box culture of masculinity. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

"What does it mean to be a man today?" Over the past two days, transformative Intergenerational Dialogue on #PositiveMasculinity, as part of the BE MEN Campaign, has revealed both the challenges men face and the opportunities for change. From societal expectations like "boys don’t cry" to the pressure to define success solely through financial achievements, we’ve seen how these norms restrict men’s emotional freedom and limit their ability to thrive. But we’ve also uncovered solutions: embracing vulnerability, challenging outdated gender roles, and empowering men to become allies in #SRHR advocacy. @MDFC_Rwanda is proud to lead by example, with our male advocates working to champion safe abortion services and amplify the voices of young women and girls in Rwanda. 💪🏽The journey to gender equality requires all of us—together, we are stronger. #GenGRwanda #Bitebro #Tubiganireho
