Transgender Day of Visibility is an annual observance on March 31st that is dedicated to celebrating Transgender and Gender Diverse communities and raising awareness of the stigma and discrimination faced. In addition to this, the purpose of the day is also to celebrate our communities by being visible and proud. Lack of visibility as well as stigma and discrimination can be a major hurdle to overcome but with acceptance and understanding from society it can be done. Many Transgender & Gender Diverse people live happy and healthy lives since overcoming this barrier.
Project Goal:
The goal of this project is to be visible and proud in all our wonderful identities and also raise awareness of the damage that stigma and discrimination can cause to Transgender & Gender Diverse communities, not just as individuals but also the impact it can have on these communities in a broader sense.
Another goal of the project is to show that we are the same as everyone else and just want to live a happy and healthy life. This campaign will allow for anyone who wants to tell their story about what visibility means to them.
TDoV Visibility Project:
Anyone within the Transgender & Gender Diverse communities to provide a photo of themselves and a few lines about what visibility means to them.
Photos and quotes need to be PG friendly. Photos of more than one person will need to have model releases completed by all people in the picture.
** If accepted for use, the photos and quotes used within the project may be posted on the Many Genders One Voice Facebook page, Many Genders One Voice website and also shared to Queensland Council for LGBTI Health’s (QC) Facebook page. **
