Men's Health and Wellbeing resources
Keep up to date and informed with the latest information on men’s health and wellbeing from what’s going on at La Trobe and in the wider world of men’s health.
Groups and workshops
A series of groups and workshops created especially for men run throughout the semester. All groups are a chance to share experiences and have important conversations about the things that impact us as men today.
If you have ideas and would like to form your own group focusing on men’s wellbeing. Feel free to email us at menswellbeing@latrobe.edu.au and will be happy to support you.
