Manned Up Conversations
Manned Up Conversations is a dynamic platform committed to fostering open, honest, and transformative discussions among men from all walks of life. Our mission is to challenge outdated notions of masculinity and provide a safe space where men can freely explore their emotions, experiences, and struggles without fear of judgment.
Through insightful content and interactive dialogue, Manned Up Conversations encourages personal growth, emotional intelligence, and meaningful change in the lives of men across Africa and beyond.
We envision a world where men break free from societal expectations, embracing vulnerability and emotional well-being as strengths rather than weaknesses. By promoting open conversations and a culture of mutual support, we empower men to lead more authentic, fulfilling lives—positively impacting their communities, relationships, and future generations.

Creating Care Uptake Points For Men with Dr Vuyo Yokwe
Thanks for listening if you are joining for the first time, hope you enjoy the conversation and peace and love to you for coming back to listen.
Although the term "safe spaces" is frequently used in casual conversations, what does it actually mean? We explore the impportance and quality of conversations held in such spaces and highlight some essential elements of designing safe spaces, we then question if our own and others efforts in reaching and working with men are effective in addressing their issues. Dr Vuyo also shares some interesting tools he recommends as alternative ways to provide men's services in spaces that they are already familiar with.
Dr Vuyo Yokwe is a medical doctor and a Mens mental health advocate. Dr Yokwe hopes to increase awareness of mental health issues and to decrease mental health stigma related to men. Dr Yokwe started a community called Man Vitality Conversation to talk frankly about men's mental health matters.
