BC Provincial Launch of The Real Face of Men’s Health: 2025 Canadian Report

Movember, the global leading charity working to improve men’s health, recently launched The Real Face of Men’s Health: 2025 Canadian Report nationwide during the Men’s Health Week 2025. The report was undertaken by the Movember Institute of Men’s Health as too many men are living with poor health or are dying young from conditions that are preventable. The report, co-authored by Dr. John Oliffe (Professor and Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Men’s Health Promotion at the University of British Columbia) and Niigaan Sinclair (Anishinaabe from Peguis First Nation, a writer, editor and professor of Indigenous Studies at the University of Manitoba), advocates for the creation of a National Men’s Health Strategy and urges the Government of Canada to commit to its development.

That said, on July 22^nd, the Men’s Health Research program and Reducing Male Suicide research excellence cluster at UBC, in collaboration with Movember, is hosting the BC Provincial launch of the report. We would like to invite members across UBC including faculty, staff and students to join us at the event, which will include a panel discussion that aims to collectively build understandings about the challenges and potential remedies for promoting men’s health
