In episode 3 - Part 2 of Injury & Gender, the conversation continues between, Season 1 host, Shari Thompson-Ricci and special guest Kevin Vowles. They explore deeper into why young boys and men are disproportionally reflected in injury statistics. This time they focus on traumatic brain injury (TBI), discuss how males are affected by toxic masculinity which is brought on by stereotypes based on cultural and social expectations, and how this often leads to preventable traumatic injuries.
Call to action:
“Awareness is extremely important! Having dialogue with young people, to give them the opportunity to engage in the conversation, around substance use, policing gender norms and what injury prevention looks like, will lead to positive change. The future is bright!”- Kevin Vowles
