One of the six pillars of International Men’s Day is to improve gender relations and promote gender equality not only for men but for women too. In this light the theme for 2021 is “Better relations between men and women.”
International Men’s Day encourages men to teach the boys in their lives the values, character and responsibilities of being a man. Mahatma Gandhi said, “We must become the change we seek.” It is only when we all, both men and women, lead by example that we will create a fair and safe society which allows everyone the opportunity to prosper.
