FAQs

What is the Mankind Project Australia?

We are a non-profit organisation dedicated to supporting men on their journey of self-discovery and personal growth. For over 25 years, MKP Australia has empowered men to live with integrity, responsibility, and connection through experiential programs and community-based circles.

Our mission is to create a safer world by growing better men. We do this by training men, supporting them in circles, and inspiring them to missions of service, contributing positively to their families, communities and the planet.

Is MKP Australia part of a bigger community?
The ManKind Project International (MKPI) is a global network of nonprofit organisations dedicated to supporting men’s personal growth, self-awareness, and emotional intelligence. It focuses on helping men make conscious transitions, find role models and explore leadership abilities. MKPI’s mission is to create a safer world by nurturing better men and promoting healthy masculinity.
  • Global Network:

    MKP operates in over 23 nations, with local communities producing the New Warrior Training Adventure and other programs.

  • Key Focus:

    MKP’s programs, particularly the New Warrior Training Adventure, aim to help men explore their emotional intelligence, develop accountability, and tap into their leadership potential.

  • Supportive Community:

    MKP offers a peer-facilitated network of Men’s Groups, known as i-Groups, providing a safe space for men to connect and grow together.

  • Vision and Values:

    MKP envisions a world where men have good relationships with themselves and others, where conflicts are resolved peacefully, and where men take responsibility for their actions.

  • Inclusive and Affirmed:
    MKP strives to be inclusive and affirming of diverse backgrounds and experiences, promoting understanding and respect.
Is MKP Australia independently governed?

We are a community within The ManKind Project International. As an organisation, MKP Australia is independent and self-governing.

What are the values that guide MKP Australia?

The MKP Australia is built on the core values of:

  • Accountability
  • Authenticity
  • Compassion
  • Generosity
  • Integrity
  • Leadership
  • Multicultural Awareness
  • Respect

Our commitment to these values guides us every day. Learn more about our Core Values.

What kind of men participate in the Mankind Project?

Being part of the MKP community means joining a diverse group of men from all walks of life — students, professionals and more — united by a shared goal: to grow, find purpose, and become better versions of themselves.

Men join for different reasons. Some are looking to heal, while others seek positive role models for mature masculinity. Some want to develop leadership skills, transition from adolescence to adulthood, or embrace the journey into elderhood. Whatever the reason, they come because something inside tells them it’s time to take the next step.

How diverse is MKP Australia?

We welcome men of all sexual orientations — gay, straight, bi, and trans — to join our trainings and men’s circles. Our programs foster connection, respect, and personal growth. We are creating spaces where every man can explore his truth while appreciating and valuing others. Diversity and inclusion have been at the heart of our work for over 20 years.

Is MKP Australia a religious organisation?

No, MKP Australia is not a religious organisation.

We welcome and encourage men from all walks of life, religious and non-religious, to sit together with respect and acceptance in the common pursuit of healing and growth.

Why is MKP only for men?

We believe it’s important for men to support and trust each other. Our focus is on helping men develop a healthy and mature sense of masculinity. By working together, we create stronger relationships with women — built on respect, self-reliance, emotional intelligence, empathy, and compassion. When we work on ourselves, everyone benefits.
