GRNSW International Men's Day 2025 ‘Celebrating the Journey’ FOREWORD

ELEBRATING THE JOURNEY

GRNSW Gender Demographic This November, on Thursday 27th, GRNSW celebrates International Men’s Day (IMD).

In 2025 the IMD campaign theme is ‘Celebrate’ - a global call to acknowledge the difference and impact men make in our world.

We will hear from leaders at all levels — celebrating their journeys, their challenges, and their role models.

IMD originated in 1999, when Dr. Jerome Teelucksingh, a history lecturer from Trinidad and Tobago, proposed a designated day to celebrate men's accomplishments and address critical issues.

Leaders at all levels face obstacles, disappointment, fear, reward and satisfaction. It’s acknowledging the hits and celebrating the wins. It’s leaning into fortitude and resilience needed through the journey. It’s seeking and celebrating role models that dust you off, speak words of wisdom, or challenge you when needed. If leading onesself, leading an organisation, or leading a Board, taking time out to celebrating is critical. Celebrating dedicates time to reflect, time to hone and grow, and time to remember the journey along the way is as important as the destination.

This day is dedicated to bringing forward topics in an aim to bring awareness about various issues that men face today and to celebrate a positive male image.

GRNSW prides itself on our unique balance of men and women represented across our organisation. Further, we are invested in the needs of both our female and male employees. We were pleased to host International Women’s Day in March this year, and equally pleased to be celebrating the men in our lives this coming November.
