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.
