Trans Awareness Week 2023
Each year between November 13–19, we participate in Transgender Awareness Week. This is a week when transgender people and their allies take action to bring attention to the trans community by educating the public about who transgender people are, sharing stories and experiences, and advancing advocacy around issues of prejudice, discrimination, and violence that affect the transgender community
A few years ago, researchers from the University of Strathclyde conducted research on the experiences of transgender, non-binary and gender diverse people in colleges and universities (the TransEDU project, 2016–2018). From this project, a number of resources were developed to help raise awareness and understanding of transgender people and the challenges faced by the community. The trans awareness slides, shared below, have been adapting from this resource.
