What is the From Theory to Practice Training?


Check out more photos & a video clip from our last training

MCSR's "From Theory To Practice" (FTTP) three-day Strength Training ensures that participants receive the most comprehensive training possible. Participants explore the theory behind engaging men and boys, experience and learn the exercises and approaches that have made MCSR’s approach the leader in creating cultures free from violence, especially men’s violence against women, and collaborate to determine the practical applications of these skills in their communities. Check out the organizations that have attended our trainings and what some of the participants had to say about their experience.

Training Objectives:

  • Become more aware of the "Dominant Stories" of masculinity and better understand the importance of "Counterstories," and how these relate to violence against women.
  • Explore the challenges of engaging men and learn effective ways to overcome these barriers.
  • Learn how men can be mobilized to become better allies with women.
  • Strategize with others about how to involve men in our work.
  • Build skills for speaking with men about sexism.
  • Learn how to better assist men in connecting sexism to other forms of oppression.
  • Provide participants with practice responses to common reactions and questions from male audiences.

Date & Location
FTTP is held every January and July in Washington, DC.

Registration & Cost
Registration is $500 which includes the full three-day training, breakfast each day, and MCSR's training manual. Travel and lodging not included.
