MARC Blog

 
For too long conversations about gender have been one-sided—primarily reflecting the perspectives of women. To be full partners with women in achieving gender equality, men need a space to consider what gender means in their own lives and the role they can play as advocates for change at work and beyond. This is what the MARC Blog is all about. What does it mean to be a man at work and in society? Does male privilege hurt men? What can men to do to change the workplace so that men and women have equal opportunities for advancement? MARC Bloggers will be taking on these key issues.

Who are the official MARC bloggers? They include Amitabh Kumar, Bill Proudman, Frank McCloskey, Graeme Russell, Lars Einar Engström, Martin Davidson, Michael Kimmel and Michael Welp.
