Masculinity, as expressed in our patriarchal system(s) has wide ranging consequences. Not only for humans, but also for our societies and in effect for the planet. In this panel, Dr Stephen Burrell (Researcher at the Centre for Research into Violence and Abuse and co-host of the Now and Men Podcast, UK), Mohit Dudeja (Founder and President of the Mendlife Foundation and researcher with a focus on the intersectional dynamics of gender, sexuality, and education, India) and Dr Gerald Walton (Co-author of Being Boys: Shaping Gender Norms to Weaken Rape Culture, Canada) will discuss how masculinity holds men back, how it contributes to rape culture & sexual violence and what the links are between masculinity, privilege, power and climate change. The panel discussion is hosted by Björn (co-founder of Male Allies Challenging Sexism) and followed by a Q&A.
