International Men’s Day - 19th November
On November 19, International Men’s Day celebrates worldwide the positive value men bring to the world, their families and communities. We highlight positive role models and raise awareness of men’s mental health and well-being. The theme for 2025 is “Celebrating Men and Boys”.
The three overarching core themes for International Men’s Day in the UK are used every year to help maximise participation are:
- Making a positive difference to the wellbeing and lives of men and boys
- Raising awareness and/or funds for charities supporting men and boys’ wellbeing
- Promoting a positive conversation about men, manhood and masculinity
IMD salutes the sacrifices and strengths of men and boys and seeks to bring fairness in gender narratives.
It encourages open discussions on men’s mental health, addressing issues such as stress, su***de, and emotional vulnerability that generally receive less attention.
The day urges society to invest in initiatives for equality, non-violence, equal opportunities, and healthy familial relationships.
