•  
• High School Workshops
  
  • Workshops will be held at high schools around the country with just the males scholars of each school, ranging from grade 8 to grade 12, once every two years
  • Workshops will depend on the demographics of each province and be conducted by a volunteer male celebrity role model of that province.
  • Workshops will be conducted a range of popular male celebrities/sportmen/businessmen who fit the descriptions of a male role model according to the core values and principles of the Man Up Campaign. These volunteer male role models will be the MCs/co coordinators of workshops and will be supported by a popular female celebrity who volunteers who will be his co star in the workshop.
  • The workshops will also include testimonies of previously or still convicted rapists and outspoken victims of rape or rape activists (shock and awe factor of workshop). {This part of the workshop is debatable and one would have to question ethnics, but by having these testimonies from both sides of rape, and it consequences, I am questioning whether this will create fear within the audience in terms of jail time and life, sympathy for the victims of rape and reconciliation of gender inequalities}
  • Workshops will discuss issues of manhood and moral, respectful and responsible acts of courtship. Workshop MCs or coordinators will entertain audiences with interactive re enactments of right and wrong situations of gender socialization, interaction and courtship according to all cultures.
  • Workshops will also outline what a man is according to the many cultures of this nation and the role men have in their families, relationships, communities and South African society as a whole. This will be done in an interactive manner where male coordinator gets the audience through discussion, debate and acting to come up with the core values of manhood according to what they have learnt in the workshop.
  
  At this stage, once the core values and principles of manhood are drafted into a manifesto or the national Man Up set of core values and principle of manhood, the stage is opened up for male scholars to come up on stage and make a life long pledge towards those values and principles spelt out before them in which they were apart of constructing. This pledge will be called the MAN PLEDGE. On swearing upon these values and principles, each participate is given a pledge ring/bracelet or necklace of which they can wear and should wear at all times, even at school.
  
  But this only if they obey the core values and principle of manhood according to their Man Manifesto or the Man Up Manifesto of Manhood. If they come in dispute of these values and principles their pledge ring/bracelet or necklace may be taken away from them and they disband from the Man Up Club. By taking the pledge, male scholars are upload to a national database and become part of the Man Up Club which allows them membership to a network of other pledgers across the country, a online website and mobile site that provides them with information, interaction and  online services and Man Up Events.
  • In addition to National Man Up Day on the 13th of October, high schools that have completed the workshop at the beginning of the year, provide their female scholars access to vote for the Man Up Gentleman of the School, 4 weeks before the 13th of October, thus depending on the day some where between the 10th and 15th of September.
  
  They vote accordingly to the core values and principles of Man Up’s ideals of a man or gentleman and who ever has manifested thee values and principles into his everyday life and interactions with women. The chosen Man Up Gentleman of the School then participates in a regional two day conference with other selected Man Up Gentleman two weeks later, where they discuss their experiences of manhood, gender equality and human rights, debate issues on these three topics and then provide local solutions to problems within these subject matters and the eradication of rape and woman abuse.
  
  One the last day of the conference regional participates vote on a regional Man Up chairman who will attend the National Man Up Conference/Gala on the 12th and 13th of October where they discuss and debate issues with government departments, officials and institutions, public figures, civic organizations, NGO’s, celebrities and the private sector on inventions and policies that can provide solutions in eradicating rape and woman abuse and providing be protection and legal services for rape victims
