Life Conver​sations​

Life Conversations is a public lecture series by the Aga Khan University's Medical College, East Africa. The quarterly forum uses a hybrid system, with a physical town hall and a virtual audience. It provides a platform for public discussions aimed at practical, relevant, and impactful solutions on current societal issues.

Balancing the Weight: Work, Health, Family, and the struggle to make it all work out well  for  today's man.

​The pressure to succeed, provide and be present can leave today’s man pulled in many directions. This edition of the Life Conversations Forum brings together panellists with diverse professional backgrounds and personal experiences for a candid conversation on the demands of work, finances, family and health. Through expert insights and real-life stories, we will explore the expectations men carry and share practical ways to navigate competing responsibilities, seek support and find balance without putting their own wellbeing last.​​ In the spirit of Movember’s focus on men’s health, the conversation also encourages men to speak openly, seek support and make their physical and mental wellbeing a priority.

This session is free and open to all. You can join us in-person or online.
