Men’s Health Initiative of BC

The Men’s Health Initiative of BC (MHIBC) is a large-scale initiative aimed at improving men’s health and quality of life through leadership, awareness and education campaigns, research, and disseminating best practices in clinical care.  While the focus is on males, MHIBC does not adopt an “exclusivity” approach; rather, similar to women’s programs, a gender-approach is taken to health, highlighting key biological, social and cultural determinants for the best health care possible.

The MHIBC will improve health and decrease disease in British Columbia’s men, and, in doing so, will also benefit their spouses and children, their extended families, and their communities.
