boys to MEN Foundation is a Nigerian non-governmental organization (NGO) established in November 2017. The Foundation is dedicated to supporting boys and men to become their best selves, and so positively impact the communities in which they live. Its programmes commenced in April 2018.
Many people complain about how badly boys and young men behave ‘nowadays’, but not enough is being done to support a change in the narrative. To do this, there must be fundamental changes to our way of thinking, being and doing, and a change in attitudes to gender roles. To quote Thomas Page McBee, ‘we must ‘create a culture where boys are not raised to see masculinity and humanity as mutually exclusive.’ We must raise the right kind of men to face the challenges of the new age and drive equity within the social structure.
The emphasis of most gender based organisations is understandably on women because they qualify as disadvantaged on many levels, driven by traditional and cultural values. These organisations are focused on achieving parity by supporting women using various interventions. There is however a very real danger that boys and men are being left behind in many respects and will consequently suffer a loss of confidence and self - esteem. We already see evidence of this. We don’t want our boys and men to fall behind, and to fall through the proverbial cracks. We must therefore support the development of a culture of excellence and promote confidence in both genders.
