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

Each pack contains comprehensive information covering coping with diagnosis, localised prostate cancer, what women need to know about prostate cancer, pelvic floor exercises, continence, erectile dysfunction, sex after treatment, maintaining wellbeing, depression and anxiety and a personal organiser.


The theory of change driving the design of this pack is that provision of up to date and accurate information about all aspects of the prostate cancer journey leads to informed decision making which in turn improves coping and reduces decision regret.

Localised Prostate Cancer Packs were marketed via the PCFA website, traditional and social media and PCFA affiliated support group networks using postcards.

Packs were distributed through Symbion Pharmacy Services affiliated pharmacies, urologists and other medical professionals including Prostate Cancer Specialist Nurses, hospitals and support group network.
Available as a physical pack, on USB and to download from the PCFA website
