Trans Awareness Week

13/11/2024

Diversity

Trans Awareness Week takes place each year between 13 and 19 November. It is a time for raising the visibility, amplifying the voices and celebrating the resilience of trans and gender diverse communities. It is also a time for trans communities and allies to take action to raise awareness and advance advocacy for trans rights and safety.

Trans Awareness Week is followed by Trans Day of Remembrance on 20 November, an international day of memorial, to honour and remember those who have lost their lives to anti-trans violence and discrimination.
