EFFECTIVE WAYS OF ENGAGING MEN is Australia's leading men's health promotion training program that focuses on how we can more effectively communicate health and wellbeing messages to men and what agencies and organisations need to know about making their services, programs and resources more men friendly to achieve the best possible outcomes for men and boys. The program is for men and women who work in organisations and companies that provide health, welfare, wellbeing or community services for men and boys.
You will learn through input and interactive groupwork:
What the current national issues are for males and principles of best practice in men's health work/What you need to know about the new National Male Health Policy/How to increase your knowledge and skills in men's health work/How to use the H.E.A.L.T.H. model for engaging men/About current successful men's health promotion strategies and resources/Ways to develop your own effective men friendly programs and resources for your organisation or service. The training program will also provide you with an opportunity to network and build collaborative partnerships to improve the delivery of men friendly services in your area. The program is provided in a strengths based model that addresses the social determinants of health.
