Past event
As part of the Fragile Strength programme, we are excited to host a powerful and timely panel discussion exploring the essential yet often unspoken role women play in shaping male mental health. Titled Women’s Role in Male Mental Health, this conversation brings together perspectives from the arts, academia, and community-based leadership.
Women serve as mothers, sisters, partners, friends, therapists, educators, and colleagues often forming the emotional scaffolding in the lives of the men around them. Despite this, their role in supporting male mental health is frequently under-acknowledged. This discussion aims to unpack how women witness, influence, and support men's mental well-being in both private and public spaces.'
-Through this panel, we will explore:
-How gender expectations affect men's ability to express emotion
-The emotional labour women often take on in relationships
-The role of women in deconstructing toxic masculinity
-How art, research, and cultural spaces can create bridges of empathy and dialogue
Free to attend. RSVP required
