One of the major barriers to men addressing and tackling the challenges they face is the fact that discussion of mental health is largely taboo for Tanzanian men. They’re not expected (and therefore may feel they’re not allowed) to open up and talk about their struggles with life. Every two weeks (Biweekly), on Fridays Michael Baruti presents an episode that will discuss the challenges that men go through and offer a detailed insight on mental health for men. If you’re interested in Mental Health and are interested in unpacking and unlearning mental health for men in Tanzania, this podcast is for you
