This ground-breaking report presents the findings from our expert meeting of D/deaf and disabled trans and queer activists, held in summer 2017.
It sets out the various challenges that D/deaf and disabled trans people face in accessing their human rights, and discusses the barriers that D/deaf and disabled trans people experience in attempting to engage with LGBTIQ organisations. The report includes an extensive list of practical steps that organisations can take to overcome or reduce these barriers.
We have carried out this work because the needs of D/deaf and disabled trans people have been largely missing from LGBTI advocacy. So in order to represent D/deaf and disabled trans people we had to find out what their advocacy priorities are. We also saw this as an an opportunity to learn about the improvements that need to be made for the organisation to better engage with D/deaf and disabled trans people.
