The European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) invites you to participate in the online discussion “Engaging Men for Gender Equality”.

EIGE has been looking for ways how to integrate the area of men and gender equality in its work. Current debate on how to engage men in gender equality will help to clarify and add directions into EIGE’s concept paper on men and gender equality. The online debate is also the follow-up of a previous on-line discussion on the topic of men and gender equality, which was held last autumn.

EIGE hopes to stimulate a constructive online discussion during which all participants are invited to give their feedback on how to involve men in gender equality and assess which areas are particularly critical for men. We will, for example, discuss the role of men in gender-based violence and how to cooperate with women’s organisations and other stakeholders in this area. Another part of the online discussion will deal with critical areas of the Gender Equality Index, which are relevant for men such as health behaviour or care activities. We look forward to receiving your input, which will feed into the planned concept paper and we hope to develop common strategies together on how to better engage men for gender equality in the future.
