SUMMARY:Trans Health Justice
DESCRIPTION:Trans people seeking gender-affirming healthcare are routinely confronted with pathologisation and the slow violence of years-long waiting lists. In the past five years\, attacks on trans healthcare in the UK have intensified: \n\n\n\n\nThe NHS has halted prescription of puberty blockers for under-18s in the context of gender-affirming care\n\n\n\nAdult trans healthcare services remain chronically underfunded and difficult to access\n\n\n\nA recent Supreme Court ruling undermines the right to bodily autonomy and self-determination\n\n\n\n\nThese attacks are not isolated – they’re part of a wider rollback of health services and human rights in the UK.For this online event\, we’ll explore the state of trans health and trans rights in the UK\, how they’re shaped by social and economic determinants like housing and austerity and what resistance rooted in solidarity and justice can look like.We’ll hear from: \n\n\n\n\nJack Doyle\, historian & trans health advocate\n\n\n\nFae Fulconis\, athlete and campaigner\n\n\n\nShiraz Hussain\, member of rs21\n\n\n\n\nThis event is especially valuable for health workers\, but it’s open to everyone – so please share widely!This is part of Medact’s Learning for Action series that aims to equip us with the knowledge and skills we need to win a more just world.

SUMMARY:Welcome call: join the No Palantir in the NHS campaign
DESCRIPTION:Effective organising often comes from workers and communities coming together to fight for their demands. Palestinian health unions have called for our solidarity and action to end the complicity of our institutions in the genocide. Following recent wins at the BMA Annual Representative Meeting\, health workers have more power than ever to organise in their workplace for Palestine. \n\n\n\nHealth Workers for a Free Palestine UK’s (HW4FP UK) current campaign is focused on a US-based military\, AI and surveillance company called Palantir that supplies its technologies to the Israeli Defence Ministry whilst it orchestrates genocide in Gaza. They also supply technology to ICE for mass deportations in the US and provide police forces with ‘predictive policing’ technology. This company was recently awarded a £330 million contract with NHS England to manage confidential patient data on a national scale.We say “no” to Palantir in our NHS. Attend this onboarding call hosted by HW4FP to find out about and involve yourself in the No Palantir in the NHS campaign and organise against privatisation\, surveillance and genocide. We will go through the strategy and history of the campaign\, as well as organising tips and help you to set up campaigns in your local area.Join the worker-led movement to end complicity in genocide!
