Listen "Gideon Igra: Men's mental health in times of war"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of JPost sits down with..., we sit down with Gideon Igra, a leading figure in WIZO (Women’s International Zionist Organization) who is spearheading efforts to address men’s mental health in Israeli society. While WIZO has long been known for its work empowering women and children, Gideon’s work highlights an often-overlooked issue: the emotional and psychological well-being of men. Gideon shares his personal motivations for championing men’s mental health, the stigma that still surrounds the topic, and how WIZO is expanding its programs to support men who are returning to their families after military service. His work bridges the gap between traditional support services and the growing need for inclusive mental health advocacy. Join Yuval Barnea for a powerful and timely conversation about vulnerability, resilience, and why taking care of men’s mental health is essential to building a stronger, more compassionate society.Learn more about WIZO here.
