On 16th November 2015, the organization SAFE Ireland launched the new phase of its MAN UP and Stand against Domestic Violence campaign in Dublin. Fronted by professional UFC mix martial arts fighter Cathal Pendred, the MAN UP campaign aims at promoting the positive role that men can play in ending domestic violence, in challenging abuse and in supporting women and children. Launched in 2012, it focuses on “men showing leadership, pride and courage to stand against domestic violence. To challenge the abuse of women and children.” Over the past four years, the campaign has received broad support – supporters have included many other sports stars, entertainers, politicians and community leaders, alongside thousands of men in sports clubs, work places, schools and colleges who have committed to preventing domestic violence – and has caught international imagination, including in Italy, the United States and Sweden, where MAN UP was launched in 2014.
