We work closely with our global men's health partners to ensure collaboration, transparency and accountability for every project we fund. We monitor this through report cards which detail what we seek to achieve, key measures and the impact.
Prostate Cancer
"Together with the brightest minds in research, we aim to achieve significant breakthroughs in the hope of beating prostate cancer. Our disruptive funding approach identifies revolutionary ways to accelerate health outcomes by creating strong, global collaborative teams." Dr. Colleen Nelson, Global Scientific Chair.
Men's Health
"One Mo can help change the face of men’s health through the powerful conversations created globally during Movember. Men have the chance to confidently discuss men’s health with people around them, resulting in men taking action early, helping change and save lives." Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programs
Mental health and suicide prevention
“The number of men taking their own lives around the world is one of the biggest challenges of our time. Movember is working to ensure all men and boys look after their mental health and are comfortable to seek help when they’re struggling.”
Brendan Maher, Global Director, Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.
Testicular Cancer
“Despite being the 2nd most common cancer in young men, testicular cancer is often a forgotten cancer due to early detection and treatment. Our projects look at underinvested areas such as improving access to healthcare services and treatment options for relapse” Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programs.

About the project

This resourcing will help to provide a central point of coordination and promote an effective working relationship between PCFA and the Movember Foundation. Importantly, it will ensure consistency in reporting and the rapid application of the knowledge generated towards tests, treatments and interventions that benefit men with prostate cancer. Specifically:
•    PCFA will assess all progress reports submitted by funded researchers on an annual basis.
•    PCFA will complete an annual Report Card for each program and this Program each July. Additionally, progress against the Indicators will be reported annually.  
•    Required financial reporting and reconciliation of funds are outlined in Schedule 5 of the Men’s Health Partner Agreement and will be fulfilled by PCFA.

Research programs funded under this scheme are:
•    Movember Revolutionary Awards
•    Clinical Trial Awards
•    Young Investigator Awards
•    New Concept Grants
The program is run by the director of research programs and the research program coordinator. Research office staff report internally to the COO and the CEO of the organization, quarterly to the National Board of PCFA and annually to The Movember Foundation.

Prostate Cancer Research Alliance

The Program will fund research that leverages Australia's existing strengths in prostate cancer biomedical research to deliver outcomes that can be translated into clinical practice within the next 5 to 7 years.
