Research and policy advocacy to empower men and their patners and improve overall health and wellbeing
We build understanding of men's sexual and reproductive health (SRH), address gaps in public health policies, advocate for inclusive and equitable SRH services for men, and challenge the stigma surrounding men’s sexual and reproductive health. Working with others, we ensure the SRH needs of men and their partners are recognised and prioritised through better policies and more comprehensive SRH care.
Key projects
Evidence submission on men's unmet SRH needs & current UK policy gaps
MSRHM submitted evidence to the UK government on the gaps in policy in England on men's SRH. This highlighted the significant blindspot around men's SRH - particularly reproductive health - and the needs for a stronger strategic and political commitment to addressing men's unmet SRH needs at national and local levels.
Policy Report on men & SRH in England
Our forthcoming landmark England Men's SRH Policy report provides an analysis of the focus and representation on men in SRH policy in England, including at national and local authority level, and outlines recommendations to improve provison of SRH care for men, boys and their partners.
Launched late 2024, together with Global Action on Men's Health, Out of Focus provides the robust evidence base needed to advance men and women’s sexual and reproductive health (SRH) policy globally.
UK policy influence and development
Men’s Sexual & Reproductive Health Matters works with stakeholders to support a focus on men's SRH within the UK policy landscape, including advocating for the proposed new Men’s Health Strategy in England to adequately consider the SRH needs of men and boys.
