The Habari bloggers collective is using online tools and real-life workshops in its #VraiMobali (#RealMan) campaign to raise awareness about sexism.
The organisers are challenging long-held views about gender roles and are trying to deconstruct stereotypes about manhood and, instead, promote an understanding of positive masculinity.
“Men dont lose their masculinity by helping women, they dont lose their masculinity by promoting women,” one organiser said.
