INTERNATIONAL MEN’S DAY
INTERNATIONAL MEN’S DAY
International Men’s Day on November 19th is a chance for men around the globe to teach the boys in their lives the values, character, and responsibilities of being a man. On this day, male role models are invited to set examples of health, well-being, and integrity for young men.
The six primary components of International Men’s Day include:
Focus on health
Improve gender relations
Encourage gender equality
Highlight male role models
Celebrate achievements and contributions
Promote basic humanitarian values
When men lead by example, they help to create a fair and safe society. Their positive actions allow everyone to prosper.
Men celebrating International Men’s Day should not only be thinking about how they can positively influence their sons but other boys as well. These include boys without a father or who do not have a male role model to guide them through life.

This day is celebrated in over 80 countries, including Jamaica, India, the United States, the Cayman Islands, Norway, and Pakistan. Events held include sports tournaments, health fairs, prayer meetings, panel discussions on men’s issues, concerts, fundraisers, and tributes to male role models.
