On the video he described MOMA as:
"A community group because successive governments have neglected the voice and welfare of New Zealand men. We represent men who are rising up to take their rightful place, equal and alongside women."
According to their website, in 2015 MOMA was invited to provide submissions to the Chief Human Rights Commissioner David Rutherford on discrimination against men, along with the Suicide Prevention Trust and Families Apart Require Equality.
"We want to be politically influential, we want men to be treated with the same protection and fairness as women," Mr Laven said.
"We certainly want to be accurate, and don't want to deny or play down areas which men cause problems... We want to take responsibility for that."
"But men need to be treated with the same care as women are."
He said the group were promoting gender equality.
In response to MOMA's Youtube video, National Council of Women president Rae Duff said achieving gender equality would result in better social and economic outcomes for all New Zealanders.
"Diversity in leadership benefits men just as much as it does women, as it results in greater diversity of thought, which leads to improved problem solving and greater business benefits."
"While we believe in gender equality for all New Zealanders, you cannot hide from the fact that throughout history women have been severely disadvantaged because of their gender."
She said closing the gap between male and female employment rates would boost New Zealand's GDP by 10 per cent.
"To stop the cycle of gender inequality we need to involve everyone."
Mr Laven launched the first video in July, and were hoping to release more in the upcoming months.
The videos would be "open ended", continuing with interviews of different people from the community.
Mr Laven said upcoming videos would explore how some men had been treated in family court and one person who was accused of rape and acquitted.
"I think every issue that certain people won't like... I can understand that to some extent."
