Wellington Kindergartens developed The YMen project with help from government. It addresses the chronic shortage of men working in childhood education and also the high rates of unemployment among young men. The project was designed to bring reciprocal benefits to children and their male teachers. The children are exposed to male energies and perspectives, while the men gain insights into the nurture and learning of children.
