Current and emerging threats to TGD human rights
Discover how to contribute to the prevention of threats to trans and gender diverse human rights.
Summary
The Australian Human Rights Commission conducted a national project mapping threats to trans and gender diverse (TGD) human rights in Australia.
The project aims to map current and emerging threats to TGD human rights, such as actions, circumstances, events, forces, groups, situations, trends, and other phenomena that endanger or violate TGD human rights.
We sought input from individuals and civil society organisations (CSOs) with relevant background, expertise and lived experience in issues impacting TGD people through a submission process.
