About EM

WHAT IS IT THE PROJECT TRIES TO ACHIEVE?

EM is a journey into the heart of masculinity. Founded by an Australian traveller inspired by a lifetime of global experiences, EM is a platform dedicated to considering the narratives of what it means to be a man.

Born from a quest to understand masculinity with limited traditional guidance, EM explores the nature of what it means to be a man. The founder’s journey across continents has revealed an array of male identities, shaped by both universal themes and individual experiences.

EM doesn't presume to have all the answers. Instead, it creates a space for dialogue and discovery, where men from all walks of life can share their stories, challenges, and insights. The mission is to build a community that reflects the true heterogeneity of men, offering support, understanding, and perspectives that span the globe.

Join EM in this exploration and consideration of masculinity, where every voice contributes to a deeper understanding of what it means to be a man today.

Here's How EM Connects

At the core of EM is a passion for authentic connection and a deep appreciation for the diverse experiences that shape us. The approach is grounded in the simple yet profound act of listening — truly hearing the stories that men have to tell and seeing the world through their eyes.

EM recognises that every individual has a unique narrative, and while some are open books, others may be more reserved. The goal is to engage men in meaningful conversation, meeting them where they are, and creating a space for open dialogue.

Time spent with each person is tailored to their comfort and preferences, respecting how each men expresses himself and communicates. EM explores their values, ideals, and perspectives, not just to understand what makes them tick, but also to celebrate the individuality within their experiences of masculinity.

This journey is about more than just gathering stories; it's about fostering genuine connections and being inspired by the men who form part of the project. EM is committed to exploring the depth and breadth of masculinity with respect and authenticity, making each interaction a meaningful piece of the larger conversation.
