Men\u2019s issues will take center stage this November as the Antigua and Barbuda Workers\u2019 Union Youth Arm launches a three-week social media campaign in observance of International Men\u2019s Day, celebrated on 19 November each year.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The campaign aims to highlight the importance of celebrating men and boys, in addition to bringing awareness to specific issues that affect men in the workplace and the wider society.<\/p>\n

Among the issues to be featured in the campaign are Mental Health, Paternity Leave, Sexual Harassment and Work Equality.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

ABWU Youth Arm President, Raisa Roberts, said the project was conceptualized through group discussions and from her own personal reflections as a parent.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cAs the mother of a male child, I want my son to grow up in a society where he doesn’t feel marginalized. We researched issues that men face and realized that there were many issues that we can bring awareness to,\u201d Roberts explained.<\/p>\n

The President added that the overall objective of the campaign is to help more men feel appreciated and supported.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cThe ABWU Youth Arm wants to say we stand with Men,\u201d Roberts affirmed.<\/p>\n

The general public is invited to view and share the campaign by visiting and following Facebook.com\/AntiguaBarbudaWorkersUnion.<\/u><\/em><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The campaign will culminate with a video presentation and discussion which will form part of the Antigua and Barbuda Workers\u2019 Union International Men\u2019s Day Workshop on Friday, 18 November 2022.<\/p>
