Champions For Change | Raising good men. Rebuilding our nation.
Father A Nation’s evidence backed* Champions for Change (C4C) programme restores and equips men to be the fathers, partners, mentors and role models their families and society need them to be. Developed out of experience gained from over a decade of working with men in communities, it provides men with the knowledge, tools and support to live with positive, healthy healthy masculinity and break cycles of abuse, violence, and neglect. *In 2025 the programme was independently evaluated by DNA Economics, with findings showing substantial gains in participants’ knowledge and awareness of GBV, consent, harmful gender norms and positive masculinity, as well as encouraging shifts in attitudes and behaviour. The programme is designed to be community-led and self-sustaining, with trained mentors and facilitators continuing the work independently.
