Hosted by We Are GLOBAL Women | ARU Cambridge
The International Men’s Day Conference 2025 brought together business leaders, academics and practitioners to explore themes of masculinity, mental health, sustainability and collaboration.
The event focused on how we create a future where everyone can thrive — recognising men’s contributions while encouraging more open conversations around wellbeing, identity and leadership.

Key sessions explored:
- Modern masculinity, reframing strength to include vulnerability, growth and empathy
- Mental health, highlighting the importance of trust, openness and supportive environments
- Sustainability and legacy, emphasising shared responsibility across sectors
- The Unity Debate, reinforcing the idea that progress is driven through collaboration, not competition
The event closed with a clear message: meaningful progress comes from listening, understanding and working together across differences.
