Men and Masculinities - Change & Chance Speaker: Prof. Dr. Jeff Hearn The high cost of our current image of men makes other forms of "being a man" increasingly important - not only for women, queer people, society and science, but also for men themselves. With this lecture, we want to raise awareness of the far-reaching significance of the image of men, strengthen the diversity of masculinity and thus ultimately promote the full development of one´s own potential.
