MEN ENGAGE ALLIANCE
A trusted voice on the agenda on “men and masculinities”
The Men Engage Alliance has “a unique and highly valued voice in the gender equality community.”
“There is a growing awareness in the sector of the need for progressive, informed voices that reflect a ‘men and masculinity’ perspective and address the power that men’s voices continue to have in society.
” The MenEngage Alliance fulfills this important role in the field of gender equality. We do this through the collective power of being a global membership-based network and working in partnership with other actors in the field of gender equality.

Working with men and boys is never an end goal in itself.
We see our work as adding value to the collective struggle to end patriarchy, within the broader agenda of advancing people’s health and well-being, human rights, and gender, social and climate justice.
This presents a simplified summary of our Theory of Change from our unique perspective on men and masculinities, including:
➔ What needs to change: patriarchal masculinities and power
➔ Who are the agents of change we focus on: diverse men and boys
➔ How we seek to bring about change: mobilizing our members and partners for collective action
