Aaron Binning is an experienced Social Worker, Educator & Youth Mentor.
For a number of years, Aaron put his focus towards supporting at-risk young people, gaining invaluable first hand experience, training and qualifications along the way.
Driven by his passion for creating positive change, Aaron came to Bali at the beginning of 2020.
This is where he created The Road, an initiative aimed at empowering and educating young men through experiential learning. Through his work he aims to enable young men to embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery, allowing them to understand themselves, their peers, and the world around them.
Aaron's vision is to equip young men with life lessons and skills through guidance that many of us missed out on. He firmly believes in the importance of human connection through self-expression and vulnerability, recognizing that the cultivation of these skills are often missed.
These past few months I've been connecting with a number of men who are fathers of young boys and it got me thinking:
What can we do in order to effectively allow our boys transition into maturity and manhood?
What is it that I and many of my fellow men missed out on that left a lasting impact on us?
And so with that, I wanted to engage in a discussion...
For anybody who is not a parent nor a young man moving through adolescence, my hope is that we still get to use this conversation as an access point to reflect on our own lives and past experiences. In my own exploration of what was absent during my upbringing and the impact this may have had on me; I've found such explorations to be empowering as it offered me the opportunity to intentionally provide myself with the things that I lacked.
For parents of young men, I hope this can illuminate an understanding of what may be present for them and how you may be able to support them.
A reminder: I want to humbly name that both Aaron and I are not fathers and neither of us want to assume to have any answers here, but the intention was begin a conversation – especially with Aaron's vast experiences of working with young men.
