PURPOSE



The Mengineering Community of Practice (MCoP) aims to support fathers strengthen the bond between them and their sons, help navigate challenges with resilience and integrity, and create lasting memories and relationships that enrich their lives.



KEY OBJECTIVES



Knowledge Exchange - Facilitate the exchange of ideas, experiences, and best practices to enhance understanding and development in being a father as well as a positive male role model.


Networking - Provide opportunities for members to connect with peers, invited guests, subject matter experts, and educators to build personal and professional relationships and explore collaborative opportunities.

Personal development – Informal gatherings, workshops, and events to support continuous learning



ACTIVITIES AND INITIATIVES



Monthly fireside chats - informal opportunities to catch-up with local fathers to create and/or strengthen connections, share experiences, and learn from each other.


Workshops & seminars - formal opportunities facilitated by presenters on methodologies, emerging trends, and other matters of interest for fathers.


Father & son retreats – weekends where we do all the planning and all the hard work, so fathers get to enjoy the quality time spent bonding and sharing experiences with their son(s) through a mix of structured and unstructured activities.
