Men's health is in a critical condition, to put it simply: men die too young. Gender is the best way to predict how healthy someone is and what their life expectancy is. This is not good news for men, because on average men around the world die 6 years earlier than women. Moreover, poor mental health affects men more often than women: three quarters of all suicides are started by men. The World Health Organization estimates that 510,000 men die from suicide worldwide every year. That's one per minute. However, this inequality in the health of men and women receives little attention at regional, national and global levels, and is poorly respected by healthcare providers and those who make health policy. That's why the Movember Foundation focuses on men's health. Since 2004, there have been annual "Movember" events in Australia and New Zealand aimed at raising awareness of men's health, in addition to donations. For this purpose, donations are collected that benefit research via national organizations. Micha
