A packed theatre, a timely conversation and a powerful reminder of the role education can play in responding to some of the most pressing issues facing society today.

At last night's Faculty of Education Dean's Lecture, Professor Michael Flood explored the manosphere: what it is, who is drawn into it and why, and the inequalities it claims to address. He considered the critical role of policymakers in preventing its harms, while also offering practical reflections for parents and teachers.

The discussion highlighted how education can help young people recognise manipulation, challenge harmful gender stereotypes, navigate online cultures and develop healthier understandings of masculinity, relationships and belonging.

Thank you to Professor Michael Flood, Professor Kate Reynolds and Professor Chelsea Hyde, and to everyone who joined us for this important conversation.
