This year, Men’s Health Awareness Month coincides with the Women for Change Shutdown on 21 November — a national action highlighting gender-based violence and the urgent need to declare femicide a national disaster. For some men, the shutdown may feel confronting or uncomfortable, but it is an important moment for reflection, empathy, and accountability. GBV is not only a women’s issue; it is a societal crisis, and men have a responsibility to listen, understand and help change the environment that allows violence to thrive.
