Trans Justice Strategy Retreat

Recorded Live on 4zzz every Tuesday morning. Tranzmission brings you the latest in trans community news, events and discussion. Tranzmission's mission is to amplify the trans and gender non-conforming voices of Meanjin/Brisbane and is brought to you by a diverse team of transqueers.

Hosts: Ez (he/him) Elliott (he/him)

This week Ez and Elliott discuss their time at the Trans Justice Strategy Retreat that was hosted by The Trans Justice Project. Together Ez and Elliott talked about their three days on beautiful Wurundjeri Country, where more than 100 trans campaigners and allies from across the continent came to talk about how we build a powerful movement for trans justice and fight back against the anti-trans lobby.

This retreat was one of the largest ever gatherings of trans justice campaigners, allies, and activists in Australia. There was a great diversity of attendees, including everyone from grassroots activists, to parents of trans kids, clinicians, researchers, and long-time advocates. Representatives from thirty-five organisations attended, from large NGOs like Equality Australia, to smaller trans-positive not-for-profit organisations like Inner City Legal Centre.

There was also the week in community news as well as a reminder to vote for Tranzmission in this year's 2024 Brisbane Pride Queens Ball!
