This one-day event, will invite both keynote speakers and presenters to examine the experiences of some of the most vulnerable men and boys in society, and will promote collaboration between psychologists working in these fields.

We hope that with the conference taking place shortly after International Men’s Day itself, that we will be able to use the occasion to highlight ‘seldom heard’ voices, and to shine a spotlight on these under-researched areas.

The conference will take place at:

• University of West London
  St Mary’s Rd
  London
  W5 5RF
