Focus Area

Masculinities

TYPF’s work with men and masculinity emerged from the critical question “What does young men’s feminist leadership look like”. Towards this, TYPF enables conversations with young men to critically analyse patriarchal norms of masculinity, gender and identities and reject violence as an expression of masculinity.

Our interventions range across capacity building, research and public engagement and campaigning to change the acceptance of sexism, rigidity and violent aspects of masculinities and make visible more gentle, empathetic and intersectional ways of being men.
