International Men’s Health Week is celebrated every year around the world in the middle of June. It is an important opportunity to highlight men’s health and what it means to be healthy.
Through a series of promotions, events and publicity around the country, Men's Health Week is designed to provoke thought and discussion about what needs to be done to improve male health.
In 2012, Men's Health Week has a great new theme 'environMENts' which takes a look at the role of men's own environments on their health. We're placing special emphasis on the natural environment as a contributor to health, as this provides numerous actions that men, women, children, businesses, community organisations and many others can use to promote healthy living.
