Although we can no longer produce The Male, we are committed to maintaining a strong presence through our website, social media platforms and professional education opportunities. We will continue to provide high-quality, evidence-based male health content through these channels, while collaborating with trusted information partners and high-risk population groups.
If you’re concerned about the discontinuation of The Male magazine, please reach out to your local Federal Member of Parliament or the Minister for Health and Aged Care, Hon Mark Butler MP, via Twitter (@Mark_Butler_MP) to discuss future funding for men’s health
