About this Event

About the event:

The Trans Learning Partnership is a trans-led project working on creating research for and by trans people. For the last three years we have been working with trans communities on a research project looking into trans experiences of housing and community assets.

Through this work we created a method for engaging trans people at every stage of the research. This involved upskilling trans people to become researchers and working to break down barriers between researchers and participants

At this event for trans people we will share our findings and host an interactive workshop that shares our methods for research. The workshop will be a space for you to explore how to do your own community participatory research.

Other information:

This event will be a trans only space. We use the term ‘trans’ inclusively to mean anyone whose current gender/s or lack of gender is different from the gender they were assumed to be at birth. This includes non-binary, agender, genderqueer, and gender questioning people.

Snacks/Refreshments, and regular rest breaks will be provided.


About our research

The Stronger Voices report is the result of three years of community-based and trans-led research. We aim to build an understanding of how housing is experienced by trans people, while also exploring how trans people and our communities create and imagine ideal livelihoods. This work stands in contrast to a deficit-based approach which focuses only on negative outcomes for trans people, such as the lack of good housing. Instead, this report goes beyond simply reporting the problems that trans people experience. We therefore explore what assets trans people create, use, and need to build space for living and belonging, and how trans community assets can inform better approaches to research.
