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.

What we seek to achieve

To support the development and implementation of digital / technology solutions that increase levels of social connections and feelings of belongingness for men particularly those who are at greater risk of becoming socially isolated and experiencing poor mental health. These include: • Men who are alone or are socially isolated. • Men who have experienced recent relationship breakdown/family separation and are isolated • Men with a physical illness (e.g. prostate/testicular cancer) who are experienc

About the project

Through this funding opportunity we are aiming to address the mental health risks associated with social isolation through digital and or technological interventions, particularly within groups of men who are at risk and where these innovative solutions can potentially be scaled for greater impact. As with other mental health initiatives, the aim is to identify those that we can collaborate and work with as partners to build the evidence that they work.

Eleven projects across Australia, Canada, Ireland, and UK initially received investment to co-develop their ideas with Movember over a two-year period.

UBC Project Funding:
Phase 1 Co-Development: CAD 220,870

Project Description: The Art & Justice project is a virtual interactive platform that builds social connections between men in prison, men on parole and the wider community through art and storytelling. The project includes the development of a digital art gallery, allowing artists to comment and engage with each other’s work. It showcases the talent of the men who take part and reduces stigmatization of prisoners by allowing the public to hear the stories and wisdom of the men inside. There is also a trauma-informed digital literacy component that aims to increase digital literacy in currently and previously incarcerated men, in order to relieve the immense barriers to social inclusion faced upon release, due to a lack of accessibility to technology in prisons.

First Person Consulting, a third-party evaluator was engaged as the evaluation partner to work with the project team.
