This issue of Raising Women Magazine takes a bold step into an often-ignored conversation: men. Not as rivals, but as partners. As we mark Movember and its call for men’s health and wellbeing, we also
spotlight the men standing for women, the champions of the HeForShe IMPACT 10x10x10 Parity initiative who prove that equality grows faster when both genders plant the seeds.
Across every page, you will find stories of men redefining strength through empathy, accountability, and leadership. From boardrooms to classrooms, from mental health to fashion, these men remind us that gender equality is not a favour, it is a shared responsibility. This edition is not about fixing men, but about celebrating those who choose to show up for women and for themselves. Because when men rise with women, humanity stands taller.
