Transcending Toolkit

In December 2019, APTN hosted a regional partnership meeting that examined the current state of transgender affairs, from health, to human rights, to policies, and discover models and strategies for advancing where we are, to where we want to be, leading to collective building.

This toolkit is a report and manual intended to be an easy-to-use guide for trans or gender and sexual diverse community organisations to:

Learn about the experiences of trans communities across the Asia and Pacific Region.
Utilise the tools shown here within your own workshops or meetings.

This guide includes “Try it Out” sections with step-by-step instructions, as well as “Journal It” or “Draw It” sections to reflect upon your own experiences as a trans activist.

Additionally, this guide can be used by non-trans organisations to learn about the experiences of the trans communities and your trans colleagues. We hope that this tool can further inspire you in your work with the trans communities in the diverse spaces your organising is in.
