Men's Health Partners

Countries

We work closely with our global men's health partners to ensure collaboration, transparency and accountability for every project we fund. We monitor this through report cards which detail what we seek to achieve, key measures and the impact.

Prostate Cancer

"Together with the brightest minds in research, we aim to achieve significant breakthroughs in the hope of beating prostate cancer. Our disruptive funding approach identifies revolutionary ways to accelerate health outcomes by creating strong, global collaborative teams." Dr. Colleen Nelson, Global Scientific Chair.

Men's Health

"One Mo can help change the face of men’s health through the powerful conversations created globally during Movember. Men have the chance to confidently discuss men’s health with people around them, resulting in men taking action early, helping change and save lives." Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programmes

Mental health and suicide prevention

“The number of men taking their own lives around the world is one of the biggest challenges of our time. Movember is working to ensure all men and boys look after their mental health and are comfortable to seek help when they’re struggling.”
Brendan Maher, Global Director, Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.

Testicular Cancer

“Despite being the 2nd most common cancer in young men, testicular cancer is often a forgotten cancer due to early detection and treatment. Our projects look at underinvested areas such as improving access to healthcare services and treatment options for relapse” Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programmes.

Social Innovators Challenge - Canadian Families & Corrections Network

Movember Funding to Date

Global funding AUD equivalent 10,492,242

What we seek to achieve

To support the development and trialing of innovative ideas that could lead to creative solutions that increase levels of social connections and feelings of belongingness for men and boys; particularly those who are socially isolated. These include key ‘at risk’ population groups including men or boys from low socio-economic communities; men living alone; or unemployed.

About the project

In late 2015, Movember released a three-phased funding opportunity within Australia, Canada, and the UK, that utilized an innovative approach to identifying and funding creative and non-traditional solutions that were co-designed by men to improve mental health and wellbeing outcomes through increased social connectivity.

The initiative was a direct response to findings from previously funded Movember research through beyondblue that highlighted an overall dissatisfaction for men, particularly in their middle years, with the quantity and quality of their friendships and elucidated the importance of strong social support networks to mitigate the associated risk factors of isolation and loneliness on depression, anxiety, and suicide.

The goal is to increase our understanding about what will engage men in healthier behaviour patterns, build positive relationships, and increase levels of social connections through the development, piloting and evaluation of innovative initiatives explicitly aimed at restoring and strengthening the social connections of men.

First Person Consulting has been engaged as the evaluation partner for this initiative.

Project Funding:
Phase 1 Development CAD 24,836
Phase 2 Piloting CAD 200,000
Phase 3 Scaling CAD 750,000

Project Description: The Canadian Families & Corrections Network (CFCN) developed Dad HERO (Helping Everyone Realize Opportunities) to target dads in the criminal justice system. DadHERO is a parenting program for incarcerated dads in Canadian correctional institutions. The goal of DadHERO is to help men find their identity as a dad and keep them focused on relationships inside prison (peers, staff), and outside prison (children, family, friends). Research has shown that this helps them when they reintegrate into their communities. Funded since 2016, Phase 3 Scaling includes support of DadHERO adaptation for Indigenous dads who are incarcerated.

The program has two core features:
•   A Parenting Curriculum delivered through a facilitated 8-week Parenting Course run weekly in medium and minimum federal and provincial prisons; and
•   Dad Support Groups that are a follow-up after course completion for continued male support and bonding offered in federal and provincial prisons and in high prison-release communities.
