Policy & Advocacy

Policy & Advocacy

This is Movember's dedicated policy and advocacy function, working to translate evidence into systemic change in men's health at the highest levels of government. Established in 2023, the team has already helped secure landmark government investment and put men's health on the political agenda in key markets around the world.

Who it’s for

GOVERNMENTS & POLICYMAKERS

To share the proof and public support needed to create policies that improve men's health and benefit all of society.

HEALTH SYSTEMS & INSTITUTIONS

To understand what systemic change in men's health looks like — and how Movember's evidence and advocacy can support it.

CORPORATE PARTNERS & PHILANTHROPISTS

To understand the policy landscape for men's health and how their investment can drive systemic, lasting change.

Movember supports all individuals within the LGBTQIA+ community, including those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual. Health disparities exist, with LGBTQIA+ individuals experiencing higher rates of mental health issues and discrimination, often exacerbated by stigma in healthcare. We advocate for the right to self-identify, protection from discrimination, inclusive education, and rights-affirming healthcare, ensuring everyone can lead a healthy, dignified life.

Movember acknowledge the many and varied experiences of people navigating their health and wellbeing, those who support them and those who came before us whose stories, struggles and strength have shaped what we know. We recognise those who have generously shared their knowledge and wisdom with us and honour those we have lost too soon. Their knowledge, insight and expertise are essential to improving the design, delivery and evaluation of the work that we do and their experiences remind us why this work matters.

Movember Foundation is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
