TransAktion

Interesseorganisation

TransAktion’s purpose is to improve trans people’s health and well-being.

With a depathologizing, devictimizing, norm-critical and intersectional approach we offer counseling and support that enhances the health and well-being of trans people, we work to improve trans people’s rights and to increase knowledge about rights among trans people.

We also work to strengthen the organization, networks and communities for and by trans people.

Some of the work we do is also related to enhancing the public’s knowledge about and understanding of trans people’s living conditions. We do this through engaging in the public debate, doing lectures, workshops, seminars, teaching etc.

We offer free, individual and professional counseling to trans people, provided by trans people with professionalized skills, knowledge and experience in Copenhagen, and soon also in Odense, Kolding, Aarhus and Aalborg.

Next year we will start doing support and organizing groups for and by trans people, one of which will be a separatist group for BIPoCs - meaning, the group only offers counseling and a space for people who are racialized minorities/non-white minorities.

Every month we organize community building events for trans people in Copenhagen in cooperation with Transpolitisk Forum.

Our definition of trans is broad and inclusive, meaning: everyone who isn’t/doesn't identify with the gender assigned at birth. Anyone and everyone who identifies anywhere along the trans spectrum (broadly undefined), including those who identify/use terms as non-binary, agender, bigender, genderqueer, gender non-conforming, two-spirit, and all those in-between and beyond these limited terms and categories. Everyone who is considering or questioning their gender/definition of their gender and/or their body - or who is in doubt - is also very welcome in our counseling and at our events.

We want an organization that reflects the various life experiences and positions in the trans movements and among trans people. TransAktion wants a broad representation of trans people, which means prioritizing representation of trans people who are often under-represented, particularly racialized minorities/non-white minorities, migrants, trans women and trans feminine, non-binary/gender non-conforming, institutionalized, sex workers, homeless.
