Mission

MISSION STATEMENT MOVEMBER FOUNDATION IS A GLOBAL MEN'S HEALTH CHARITY WITH A VISION TO CHANGE THE FACE OF MEN'S HEALTH AND CREATE A FUTURE WHERE MEN AND THEIR COMMUNITIES LIVE HEALTHIER, LONGER LIVES. MOVEMBER'S STRATEGY IS TO CONFRONT, CHALLENGE, AND CHANGE INDIVIDUAL BEHAVIOURS, HEALTH SYSTEMS, AND GENDER NORMS TO ADDRESS HEALTH INEQUALITIES FOR MEN. MOVEMBER FOUNDATION ADVANCES ITS ORGANISATIONAL GOALS THROUGH THE DELIVERY OF ITS NEW IMPACT STRATEGY, WHICH GUIDES STRATEGIC INVESTMENT IN RESEARCH, PROGRAMS, AND ADVOCACY ACROSS KEY MEN'S HEALTH ISSUES INCLUDING MENTAL HEALTH, SUICIDE PREVENTION, PROSTATE CANCER, AND THE SOCIAL DRIVERS OF HEALTH AND WELLBEING. THESE EFFORTS ARE GROUNDED IN A COMMITMENT TO EQUITY, PREVENTION, AND GENDER-RESPONSIVE CARE THAT MEETS MEN WHERE THEY ARE. RESULTS WE SEEK TO ACHIEVE: 1. LIFT THE PROFILE OF MEN'S HEALTH: MOVEMBER CONTINUES TO ELEVATE MEN'S HEALTH AS A PUBLIC HEALTH AND POLICY PRIORITY, CHALLENGING HISTORICAL UNDERINVESTMENT AND RAISING AWARENESS OF THE FAR-REACHING IMPACTS OF POOR MALE HEALTH ON FAMILIES, COMMUNITIES, AND ECONOMIES. THROUGH POLICY ENGAGEMENT, LIVED EXPERIENCE STORYTELLING, AND STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS, WE AIM TO ENSURE MEN'S HEALTH IS RECOGNISED, RESOURCED, AND INTEGRATED INTO BROADER HEALTH AGENDAS. 2. STRENGTHEN MEN'S HEALTH LITERACY MANY MEN DELAY HELP-SEEKING OR EVEN STRUGGLE TO RECOGNISE WHEN SOMETHING'S WRONG DUE TO LIMITED HEALTH KNOWLEDGE, SOCIAL STIGMA, AND ENTRENCHED MASCULINE NORMS. MOVEMBER'S PROGRAMS AIM TO EQUIP MEN WITH THE TOOLS, KNOWLEDGE, AND CONFIDENCE TO TAKE ACTION EARLIER, SEEK TIMELY SUPPORT, AND MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR HEALTH ACROSS THE LIFE COURSE. 3. PROMOTE GENDER RESPONSIVE HEALTHCARE FOR MEN HEALTH SYSTEMS OFTEN TAKE A ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL APPROACH, OVERLOOKING THE UNIQUE NEEDS, PREFERENCES, AND LIVED EXPERIENCES OF BOYS AND MEN. THIS CAN CONTRIBUTE TO LOWER ENGAGEMENT IN CARE, DELAYED HELP-SEEKING, AND POORER HEALTH OUTCOMES. MOVEMBER IS WORKING TO CLOSE THIS GAP THROUGH INVESTMENTS IN CLINICIAN EDUCATION, PATIENT-REPORTED OUTCOMES, AND SYSTEM-LEVEL REFORM. OUR GOAL IS TO IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR MEN BY SUPPORTING A MORE GENDER-SENSITIVE APPROACH TO HEALTHCARE ONE THAT RECOGNISES AND RESPONDS TO THE UNIQUE WAYS MEN THINK, FEEL, AND BEHAVE WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR HEALTH. 4. IMPROVE YOUNG MEN'S MENTAL HEALTH ADOLESCENCE AND EARLY ADULTHOOD ARE CRITICAL PERIODS FOR IDENTITY FORMATION, MENTAL HEALTH, AND HELP-SEEKING. YET MANY YOUNG MEN AT THIS LIFE STAGE EXPERIENCE DISTRESS AND TURN TO UNHEALTHY COPING BEHAVIOURS SUCH AS GAMBLING, ALCOHOL USE, OR DRUG MISUSE. MOVEMBER IS WORKING TO STRENGTHEN THEIR MENTAL FITNESS BY EMBEDDING SUPPORT IN THE SPACES THEY ALREADY GATHER FROM SPORTS FIELDS TO ONLINE GAMING PLATFORMS WHILE PROMOTING MORE FLEXIBLE AND HEALTHY REPRESENTATIONS OF MASCULINITY ACROSS DIGITAL AND CULTURAL ENVIRONMENTS. BY HELPING YOUNG MEN BUILD EMOTIONAL RESILIENCE, FORM MEANINGFUL SOCIAL CONNECTIONS, AND DEVELOP THE CONFIDENCE TO SEEK SUPPORT EARLY, WE AIM TO REDUCE LONG-TERM RISKS AND RELIANCE ON HARMFUL COPING STRATEGIES. 5. IMPROVE PROSTATE CANCER MORTALITY AND QUALITY OF LIFE PROSTATE CANCER IS ONE OF THE MOST COMMONLY DIAGNOSED CANCER IN MEN AND A LEADING CAUSE OF CANCER-RELATED DEATH. YET TOO MANY MEN EXPERIENCE POOR OUTCOMES NOT JUST DUE TO THE DISEASE ITSELF, BUT BECAUSE OF INCONSISTENT CARE PATHWAYS, DEBILITATING TREATMENT SIDE EFFECTS, AND A LACK OF PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT. MOVEMBER IS INVESTING IN RESEARCH, REAL-WORLD DATA REGISTRIES, PERSONALISED CARE MODELS, AND SEXUAL WELLBEING INITIATIVES DESIGNED TO REDUCE TREATMENT VARIATION, IMPROVE SURVIVORSHIP, AND ENHANCE QUALITY OF LIFE, PARTICULARLY FOR THOSE MOST AT RISK. DURING THE PRIOR YEAR, THE FOUNDATION COMMENCED THE PHASED IMPLEMENTATION OF THE UPDATED IMPACT STRATEGY. THE YEAR ENDING 30 APRIL 2025 MARKED THE FIRST FULL YEAR OF DELIVERY UNDER THIS NEW FRAMEWORK, GUIDING PROGRAM INVESTMENT AND EVALUATION EFFORTS ACROSS MENTAL HEALTH AND SUICIDE PREVENTION, PROSTATE CANCER, AND TESTICULAR CANCER AS OUTLINED BELOW. PROSTATE CANCER AND TESTICULAR CANCER PROGRAMS THE FOUNDATION SUPPORTS PROSTATE BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH THROUGH DIRECT FUNDING AND A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE PROSTATE CANCER FOUNDATION. THE FOUNDATION'S RESEARCH STRATEGY FOCUSES ON TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH AND CLINICAL TRIALS AIMED AT MEN WHO ARE HIGH RISK FOR DISEASE PROGRESSION OR HAVE ALREADY EXPERIENCED IT. BY FOCUSING ON THESE HIGH-RISK GROUPS, THE FOUNDATION STRIVES TO ADVANCE MEDICAL INNOVATIONS AND IMPROVE TREATMENT OUTCOMES FOR THOSE MOST IN NEED. THE FOUNDATION'S PROSTATE CANCER CLINICAL QUALITY REGISTRY AND SURVIVORSHIP PROGRAMS SEEK TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF MEN DIAGNOSED AND LIVING WITH PROSTATE OR TESTICULAR CANCER. THE FOUNDATION'S GLOBAL PROSTATE CANCER REGISTRIES, INVOLVING NUMEROUS HOSPITALS IN THE UNITED STATES, COLLECT CLINICAL AND PATIENT-REPORTED DATA TO IMPROVE TREATMENT QUALITY AND CARE, AND DIGITAL HEALTH TOOLS LIKE TRUE NORTH AND NUTS&BOLTS OFFER VALUABLE SUPPORT FOR MEN THROUGHOUT THEIR CANCER JOURNEY. MENTAL HEALTH AND SUICIDE PREVENTION PROGRAMS THE FOUNDATION FUNDS MENTAL HEALTH AND SUICIDE PREVENTION INITIATIVES WITH A PARTICULAR FOCUS ON PREVENTION AND EARLY INTERVENTION. MOVEMBER PARTNERED WITH NATIONAL AND LOCAL SPORTING ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE U.S. TO FUND COMMUNITY-LED INITIATIVES THAT USE SPORT AS A PLATFORM TO PROMOTE EARLY MENTAL HEALTH INTERVENTION AMONG YOUNG MEN. THROUGH A PARTNERSHIP WITH LAUREUS USA, MOVEMBER IS IMPLEMENTING MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAMMING IN SPORTS FOR GOOD CITIES INTEGRATING SUPPORT DIRECTLY INTO COMMUNITY SPORTS ENVIRONMENTS. MENTAL HEALTH AND SUICIDE PREVENTION PROGRAMS IN ADDITION, MOVEMBER HAS FUNDED RESEARCH TO DEVELOP NATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR MENTAL HEALTH IN SPORT, AIMED AT FOSTERING PSYCHOLOGICALLY SAFE ENVIRONMENTS FOR YOUNG MEN AND THEIR SUPPORT NETWORKS; THESE GUIDELINES WILL SERVE AS A FOUNDATIONAL RESOURCE FOR ORGANIZATIONS SEEKING TO PRIORITIZE MENTAL WELLBEING THROUGH SPORT. DIGITAL TOOLS AND ONLINE RESOURCES THE FOUNDATION CONTINUES TO INVEST IN INTERACTIVE DIGITAL TOOLS AND RESOURCES SUCH MOVEMBER MINDMOVES, WHICH WAS A COLLABORATION WITH OPENDORSE TO DEVELOP A DIGITAL COURSE SERIES THAT HELPS COLLEGIATE ATHLETES BUILD MENTAL RESILIENCE, WITH EARLY RESULTS SHOWING POSITIVE IMPACT.
