About MenEngage Alliance

MenEngage Alliance is a global network of organizations dedicated to helping men and boys explore positive and equitable answers to the question of what it means to be a man—to discover pathways to purpose, fulfilment, and happiness in their own lives, while stepping up as allies for women’s rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, and broader social justice causes. 

Overall vision for the role

From fast-changing media and political narratives, to the complexities of the digital ‘manosphere,’ the global discourse on masculinity is at a pivotal turning point.
