In a significant development for the LGBTQI+ rights movement, JusticeMakers Bangladesh in France (JMBF) has officially become a member of Transgender Europe (TGEU), on 6th February 2024, marking a pivotal moment in the organization's commitment to advancing the rights and visibility of transgender individuals.
TGEU, a prominent organization dedicated to advocating for the rights of transgender and gender-diverse people across Europe and Central Asia, welcomed JMBF into its fold with great enthusiasm. The announcement was made following JMBF's expressed interest in joining TGEU, showcasing mutual dedication to amplifying transgender voices and addressing systemic inequalities.
As a newly inducted member, JMBF gains access to a host of benefits provided by TGEU. These include privileged information about events, campaigns, funding opportunities, and other pertinent resources through a dedicated members-only mailing list. Furthermore, JMBF will have access to capacity-building support in various crucial areas such as networking, fundraising, community organizing, advocacy, and burn-out prevention, strengthening its ability to effect positive change within the transgender community.
One of the notable resources available to JMBF as a TGEU member is the Trans Leaders Academy, a groundbreaking e-learning platform designed to empower emerging trans activists with essential leadership skills. This platform offers a series of courses developed by trans experts, facilitating the development of effective advocacy strategies and fostering leadership within the transgender rights movement.
In light of this momentous occasion, TGEU has extended an invitation to JMBF for a 1-1 consultation, providing an opportunity for both organizations to establish rapport, exchange ideas, and discuss future collaboration. This consultation serves as a platform to share exciting plans and initiatives aimed at furthering transgender rights advocacy on a global scale.
The decision of JMBF to join TGEU underscores its unwavering commitment to promoting inclusivity, equality, and social justice for transgender individuals. By aligning with TGEU, JMBF strengthens its position as a formidable force in the fight against discrimination and marginalization faced by transgender communities, not only in Bangladesh but also across the broader European and Central Asian region.
As JMBF embarks on this new chapter as a TGEU member, it reaffirms its dedication to creating a more equitable and inclusive society where all individuals, regardless of their gender identity, can live free from prejudice and discrimination.
With this alliance, JusticeMakers Bangladesh in France (JMBF) and Transgender Europe (TGEU) stand united in their pursuit of a world where transgender rights are respected, protected, and celebrated.
