The week is dedicated to increase awareness of men’s health issues.

Men’s Health Week provides an opportunity to increase awareness of important male-specific health issues. It celebrates the contribution men make to family, work and the community, but reminds us that men don’t need to ‘tough it out’ or ‘go it alone’, and they shouldn’t.

Men’s Health Week 2009 focuses on preventative health and healthy behaviours that men can adopt in relation to physical, mental health and sexual health and function.

On this website you’ll find a lot of useful health information as well as some fantastic services providing help and information for men. Take your time to look around.

The events page has details of some great things happening in the community you can be a part of. Or alternatively, list your own men’s health event on our calendar.

International Men’s Health Week (IMHW) has been celebrated in Australia since 2003.  Throughout the 1990s various Australian States and Territories set aside a week to highlight men’s health issues.  These weeks were celebrated at different times of the years and each had its own focus and priorities.
