On November 25, as the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence begin, the Canadian Association of Midwives presents Moving Beyond Bad Men: The Making and Unmaking of Gender-Based Violence.

Bringing together speakers from South Sudan, Canada and the UK, this provocative global conversation explores how masculinity, power, social norms and online culture perpetuate gender-based violence, challenges what prevention efforts are still getting wrong, and asks what needs to change.

  • Data Emmanuel Gordon – Founder and Executive Director, Men4Women, South Sudan
  • Lisa Sugiura, PhD – Professor of Cybercrime and Gender, University of Portsmouth, UK
