International Men’s day is celebrated to appreciate men and boys for their contribution to the nation, society, community, marriage, family, and childcare.
On November 19, every year we observe International Men’s Day.
On this day, manhood is celebrated and the power of goodness of men is acknowledged. The objective of this day is to focus on men’s and boys’ health, improving gender relations, and promoting gender equality.
