Strategic Litigation
TGEU seeks to advance the rights of trans people by the means of supporting strategic court cases and legal actions.
TGEU is submitting third party interventions to court cases that are important for clarifying and advancing human rights of trans people on the European level.
Trans Legal Net
TGEU hosts the first European network of practising lawyers representing trans clients. Trans Legal Net is a cross-border professional exchange platform. It aims at improving litigation strategies for pending or prospective cases and thus in better legal protection for trans people. The network enables real-time advise and enhances professional exchange across borders. The network meets annually for an in person exchange and case clinic.
