‘ASKING FOR HELP DOES NOT MAKE YOU LESS OF A MAN’ – MINISTER KIZ JOHNSON ON MEN’S WELL-BEING

The conversation around men’s mental and emotional well-being took centre stage on Wednesday, with a call for men to feel more comfortable expressing their emotions and seeking support when necessary.

The Directorate of Gender Affairs hosted its ‘Man in the Mirror’ forum, creating a space for men to reflect on the pressures they face, and expectations placed on them from an early age.
