The AllMen Project Core Document 2013 (v1) 

The AllMen Project is a community of empowering individuals making a collective difference for men and boys

Our Vision

Our vision is a world where every human of every gender is enabled to thrive and fulfil their greatest potential.

Our Mission

Our mission is inspiring an unprecedented movement of empowering individuals transforming the way the world works for men and boys. 

Our Objectives

Our External Objective (The Change We Want To Make Happen In The World)

Our prime external objective is to promote the wellbeing of humanity by ensuring that every individual is just one conversation away from the help and support they need at every stage of life.

Our Internal Objective (The Change We Want To See In the Our Own Community)

Our prime internal objective is to empower every individual in our community to thrive and fulfil their greatest potential in service of the collective good. 

Our Key Strategic Objectives are:

1. Causing conversations that could change the world

2. Building a community of empowering individuals

3. Developing our capacity to make change happen

Our Values:

• Leadership: which means we cultivate leaders who turn problems into solutions
• Innovation: which means we encourage boldness and creativity
• Responsibility: which means we empower ourselves and others by taking responsibility
• Positivity: which means we are proudly positive about men, women and life  
• Fun: because empowering individuals making a difference is serious fun 

Our Methodology

The AllMen Project will seek to develop, pioneer and champion an integral approach to working with men and boys. 




This will evolve over time and will initially be distinguished by three key elements:

1. We will welcome and encourage many different approaches and value what works for different people in different contexts
2. We will remember that an integral approach requires us to consider issues from the perspective of  “all quadrants” – intentional, behavioural, cultural and systemic
3. We will consider how we can make a difference at “all levels”, particularly in relation to the 8 levels of consciousness defined in Spiral Dynamics

There are other aspects to the integral approach that we may consider and include in our work as it evolves. Most importantly we will value ‘what works’ over and above any methodology. 

Our Top Ten global aspirations are that:

1.  Boys from all backgrounds enjoy a great education

2.  All boys and girls have access to great male role models 

3,  All men and boys can enjoy great health

4,  All men and boys can enjoy rich, sustainable, abundant lives

5,  All children and adults have a great relationship with their dad

6.  We end male homelessness

7.  We stop male suicide

8.  We free men and boys from addiction

9.  We free men and boys from crime and imprisonment

10. We end all violence involving men and boys 

Our Top Ten target audiences are: 

1. Leaders – people we identify as global leaders for men and boys
