From how we greet each other, to the way we think, speak and behave, culture dictates so much of Zimbabwean life.
The expectations and pressure that come from being in such a culturally dominant society can be devastating–especially for men.
It was reported that from 2015 to 2019, 2,058 men died by suicide as compared to 505 females during the same period. These numbers are devastating and point to a much deeper issue within Zimbabwe.
According to culture, men are expected to be breadwinners, providers and strong. There is no room for anything less. This expectation takes a toll on many men in the country.
