The Movember Foundation addresses men's health issues through various initiatives and campaigns. They have grown from a small campaign in Australia to a global non-profit focused on prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health/suicide prevention. Their approach is to understand men's behaviors and perspectives through research in order to design effective campaigns. They fund research, collaborate globally, and translate knowledge into action programs. Their goals are to improve health outcomes for men and get more men actively engaged in their health.

European Healthy Stadia Extract of Workshop Slides from Kathryn Curran and Da...Daniel Parnell
Some slides from our workshop on the realities of working to promote health with men through football. All work undertaken was at Everton Football Club.
Highlights from the Cannes Lions Health creative shortlist and conference talks. Best case studies, stories and examples from pharmaceutical and healthcare marketing in 2016.
Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month may be behind us, but that doesn't mean our efforts to increase screening rates will slow down! Join Mary Doroshenk, MA, to learn about initiatives to increase colorectal cancer screening nationwide! In this webinar, designed for all those touched by colorectal cancer, Mary will discuss what 80% by 2018 is and how the effort is working. She will explain the role of survivors and caregivers and inspire you to participate in the effort.
Cancer is different for young adults. Join Young Adult Cancer Canada’s presentation on our 8 key findings from our YACPrime Study on the intensified impacts of a cancer diagnosis for those in their young adult years, as presented by YACC staff member, social worker, and colorectal cancer survivor, Dani Taylor (she/her).
About this presenter:
Dani is the Manager of Programs and Partnerships at Young Adult Cancer Canada. Dani is an oncology social worker and young adult, colorectal cancer survivor. She has completed her Masters in Social Work with the Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work at University of Toronto, as well as her Bachelor of Social Work and BA in English Literature with York University. Her experiences with the health care system and support of Young Adult Cancer Canada (YACC) led her to explore a career in psychosocial oncology, finding particular interest in illness narratives and systemic violence. Dani has previously worked for Gilda’s Club Greater Toronto (where she continues to facilitate their 20s & 30s Support Group), Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre (palliative care), and the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre (allogeneic transplant, palliative care, breast cancer survivorship, and phase one clinical trials).
This talk/workshop was presented at the Neighbourhood Houses Conference in George Town, Tasmania on 28th September 2017.
It was delivered by Glen Poole, Development Officer the Australian Men's Health Forum (AMHF) and focuses on the social determinants of men's health; the barriers that can prevent men accessing services and the common ingredients found in projects that engage with men effectively.
Engaging men in Neighbourhood Houses can sometimes require different approaches and ways of working. Some Neighbourhood Houses are looking to engage more men as service users or volunteers, and this session will look at how we may work to include more men in what we do. Glen will provide an overview of some of the key social issues than men and boys face and outline the common practices of male-friendly services, based on national and international research and best practice.
Glen Poole is the Development Officer for the Australian Men’s Health Forum, the peak body for male health in Australia focusing on the social issues that shape men and boys’ health and wellbeing. He has 20 years experience working with men and boys in the UK and Australia and is founder of the Stop Male Suicide project
Promoting health and preventing illness among African American men, who die disproportionately from preventable diseases, is a challenging health disparity that has seen limited progress. However, focusing our efforts in places outside of traditional clinical and community settings such as the barbershop has shown promise for ameliorating these disparities.

Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.
Jennifer Schaus and Associates hosts a complimentary webinar series on The FAR in 2024. Join the webinars on Wednesdays and Fridays at noon, eastern.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

2. THE PROBLEM
Evidence has shown that the problem with men dying too young is cultural and
behavioural.
• Men are reluctant to discuss their health or how they feel about the
impact of significant life events.
• Men are reluctant to take action when they don’t feel physically or
mentally well.
• Men engage in risky activities that are harmful to their health.
Men may feel pressure to appear strong and stoic; talking about feeling
unwell can be perceived as weakness.
Widespread lack of awareness, understanding, and stigma only create more
silence around men’s health issues.
Men are dying 6 years earlier than women –
largely for preventable reasons.
3. THE MOVEMBER FOUNDATION
From a grassroots campaign that started in a pub in Melbourne, Australia, we’ve
grown and groomed our way to become the largest global movement in men’s
health.
We’re tackling men’s health on a global scale, year round.
Our strategy is all about going where men need us most.
We’re transforming the way research into men’s health is done, and the way
health services reach and support men.
By 2030 we’ll reduce the number of men dying
prematurely by 25%.
4. THE MOVEMBER FOUNDATION
We’re prioritising the funding of three of the biggest men’s health issues:
• Prostate cancer
• Testicular cancer
• Mental health and suicide prevention
Within these core areas, we focus on activities that are likely to have the greatest
impact, investing in world leading research, facilitating global collaboration, and
translating knowledge of what works into action.
The Movember Foundation is funding ground-breaking programs all over the
world to understand what works best, to help make change happen sooner.

6. Knowledge is power, early detection is key.
When detected early, prostate cancer survival rates are better than 98%. But if
it’s found late, those survival rates drop below 26%.
At 50, men should have a conversation with their doctor about getting a PSA
test (which is a routine blood test). If they’re black or have a family history of
prostate cancer, they should do it at 45.

PROSTATE CANCER
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men in the UK; on
average, 32 men in the UK will die from prostate cancer every day.
7. TRUENTH
The aim
To improve the prostate cancer journey for men and their
partners and caregivers, by bringing their voices together with
doctors, researchers, and volunteers.
It will improve the way in which we work to address the needs of
men along all points of their cancer journey, helping them
achieve a good quality of life and to feel knowledgeable and
confident about managing their condition.
8. Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 15-49.
The rate of men being
diagnosed with testicular
cancer has grown by
more than 50% over the
past 30 years.
The best thing men can
do for their nuts is to give
them a bit of a feel each
month or so.

• Removing the barriers and
obstacles of traditional
health services,
• Going to where men are,
• Making sure the setting is
right – ‘a safe male space’,
and
• Providing male specific
promotional information.
A partnership with Rugby League Cares to deliver health messages to men in
Northern England Rugby League towns.

shown works by:
15. DIGITAL HEALTH PROMOTION TOOL:
GOING TO WHERE MEN ARE
Using digital to overcome the challenge of reaching men as well as other barriers
of cost, uptake and delivery.
Digital technologies present a huge opportunity to drive progress for the
prevention and early detection of mental illness given they offer means of
engaging men, capturing data, and developing and delivering new interventions.
We are balancing drivers in the digital sector (agile, iterative, open) and the
mental health field (concerns about data privacy and the need to fully understand
the risks and benefit profile of new interventions).

18. OVER TO YOU
Expertise in this room: learning from each other.
In groups of three:
Spend one minute each outlining how a piece of audience insight has shaped a
campaign or programme you’ve worked on.
Then, choose one to focus on, and agree:
• What was the key insight and how was it gathered?
• How did it change the piece of work?
• What can we learn from this going forwards?
