LeadersTalk hosted by Equimundo

What does it mean to be a man today—and how can men’s roles be transformed to get us to the caring world we know we need? At a time when restrictive notions of masculinity drive backlash, polarization, and violence, reimagining manhood and leadership through the lens of care, equity, and connection is urgent. Hosted by Equimundo’s Gary Barker in partnership with Jude Kelly and the WOW Foundation, this LeadersTalk will serve as Equimundo’s main session to introduce the next stage of our work: the MenCare Changemaker Journey. The session will culminate with the official launch of the MenCare Changemaker Journey—a global initiative to mobilize 100 influencers from business, media, culture, civil society, and government to co-ideate solutions to today’s challenges. Join us in this conversation and find out more about this new adventure.
