For Educators

Decoding the Manosphere: Influence, Misogyny, and Misinformation Training

From high-profile viral figures to the themes explored in Louis Theroux’s documentaries and the Netflix series Adolescence, educators are now dealing with a sophisticated network of influence that thrives on distrust.

Social media influencers have transformed the way young people consume information, form opinions, and shape their identities. While many influencers offer motivational and positive content, a growing number promote misogynistic ideologies, toxic masculinity, and misinformation that can deeply impact young minds.

This essential training for educators, youth workers, and professionals working with young people will unpack the influence of online misogyny, explore its links to radicalisation, and provide strategies to challenge these harmful narratives.

KIP Education moves beyond theory to give your team an immediate toolkit of practical activities and the confidence to challenge these ideologies—whether in the classroom, small groups, or during those unplanned one-to-one corridor conversations.

Learning Outcomes

  • Decode the terminology—Alpha, Sigma, and Incel—to understand why these labels offer a sense of belonging.
  • Map the algorithmic journey from harmless self-improvement content to extreme online misogyny.
  • Analyse how influencers monetise insecurity by equating personal worth with wealth and dominance.
  • Facilitate critical thinking and healthy masculinity without triggering a defensive shame response.
  • Recognise early warning signs of radicalisation and integrate them into your safeguarding framework.
