🏳️⚧️ UN Trans Advocacy Week is back!
Most trans people wish to go through life living openly and freely, as their true selves. Yet, that is not a reality for the majority. This is why we need TAW: to put trans and gender diverse activists right at the heart of democracy!
Delegates will have the chance to speak directly to diplomats, UN experts, and civil society at the
@unitednations , raising their community’s voices.
This time, we will bring participants from Albania, Armenia, Belarus/Poland, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Cameroon, Kenya, Tanzania, Morocco, Nigeria, Panama, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, to the 62nd UN
@humanrightscouncil .

A cross-border spoken word programme using poetry, performance, and language to expand queer imagination and connect cultures. This year, we’re inviting spoken word and sound artists from South Asia, Southeast Asia and the UK into a shared process of making — to write, listen, experiment, and create beyond a single voice. If your practice is rooted in voice, story, sound, and the worlds we carry — we want to hear from you. Deadline: 17 May 2026Apply now.
