Man Up Against Violence (MUAV)

At the Man Up Against Violence initiative, we challenge mindsets and behaviours with regard to the social construction of masculinity and its relationship with violence. We work together to bring light to the causes of all types of violence related to gender, race, socio-economic status, ability level and beyond. Through education, training, partnerships and awareness, the Man Up Against Violence initiative strives to embrace positive ideals of masculinity, and inspire men to accept their role as advocates in the movement to prevent violence in our communities.
