Other features include: How to become news-resilient • Beyond donations: other ways to help Ukraine • Quitting high-carbon careers to work for the planet • The world’s largest urban garden • Prescribing comedy lessons to trauma survivors • Community-owned power • Planting orchards in prisons • Making steel sustainable • The magic in noticing small things • Ethical flowers

Cover story: The men helping to end violence against women
For decades, there has been a lack of male voices speaking up about violence against women. This is starting to shift. Whether campaigning for legal change or dismantling the culture that allows gender-based violence to proliferate, we meet five men who are taking action.
Other features include: How risky playgrounds teach resilience • The hairdresser to the homeless • Pollution solution pioneers • Celebrating male baldness • Bringing music to people’s doorsteps • The joy of maps • Charting the world’s fungal networks • What we wish we’d learned in school • Slow homeware • The bicycles that grow on trees
