Precedents:
The transgender community is the most visible part of the LGBTQI collective. But it is also in quantity one of the less visible parts of it politically. We face different challenges in the construction of our identity that is far different of the challenges of accepting a sexual orientation. Through history we had been victims of medical misconceptions, and malpraxis on our integral health (ex.Hormone replacement therapy. Sexual Reassignment Surgery). Mistreat of the governments and lack of policies that guarantee us a proper social insertion; Most importantly the proper treatment in education services that place us in a more comfortable position in the labor market. The lack of studies in transgender issues and the public condem of a mental disease has left society completely blind and no perspective of the transgender population. Which leads us to face discrimination in a daily basis that is differently executed in societies, depending on many factors. Development. etc.) Purposes:
1. Decrease discrimination (transphobia) within the state. (Health institutions and services)
2. Increase the participation of the transgender community in the labor market. (Education programs. alliances with unions and/or creation of this)
3. Encourage the transgender popular voice in the decision making places. (initialize a straight connection with political parties through studies, conferences, campaigns and activities, that provide a serious perspective of the community)
4. Empowering the participation state wise of the transgender community. Activities:
1. Media campaigns for a better popular understanding of the trans community
2. Promote the creation and participation on studies related to trans issues.
3. Activities of enforcement of the participation of the trans community in society.
4. Programs in universities and education institutions for and pro trans persons.
5. Alliances and conferences with political parties and institutions to provide a better information about the trans necessities.
6. Recreational/empowering activities within the community.
7. Health programs for transgender persons

Population to benefit:
Primarily: Transgenders, Transexuals, Intersex, queer (gender) persons. And secondarily: Others who identify or relate to the Trans community. Population to reach:

Educational capacitacion, establishment of strategic alliances, and promoting actions in political incidence. Decrease discrimination in the society for a better insertion of trans people pursuing a better quality of life for nationals and foreign persons in every society. And demand a better scientific understanding of the transgender community for a proper psychological and medical treatment. Vision:
Be pioneers in the insertion of the transgender community and integrally a better understanding of the necessities of the population.

Content warning: This post contains an obituary

It’s with a very heavy heart that we share with you that Fernanda Milán passed away on 3 July 2022. She left us during the early morning with tragic suddenness as the result of a cardiac arrest.

Fernanda spread her laughter and compassion to all those that she met. She was an irreplaceable friend, fighter and activist who will live on forever in our hearts and through her effects on our community. We know that she was loved by many, and her legacy can be felt beyond borders and nations.

After having fled Guatemala, Fernanda organised for her own and other trans people’s access to asylum which led to changes to Danish and international policies, and the possibility to seek asylum in Denmark based on trans status and persecution.

Within TransAktion she was a counsellor and facilitator, and many of you had the privilege of sharing spaces with her. She truly loved the work she did, and found a deep joy in being able to connect with you all. She fought everyday to show up for our community, and was a truly dedicated activist who was passionate about creating spaces and support among, by and for the most marginalised within our trans communities. She was a proud feminist, who saw the beauty and great power in all things feminine.

Thank you Fernanda for being a wonderful friend, an amazing colleague and inspiration to many. There are no words beautiful enough to give justice to your person. We love you, we miss you and we know you are at peace, perhaps even finally reunited with your little dog Shatzy ❤

Details of her end-of-life gathering will be shared at a later date.

Advertencia de contenido: esta publicación contiene un obituario

Con gran pesar en el corazón les compartimos que Fernanda Milán falleció el 3 de julio de 2022. Nos dejó durante la madrugada de manera trágica y repentina debido a un paro cardíaco.

Su risa y compasión de Fernanda contagiaba a todxs lxs que conocía. Fue una amiga, guerrera y activista insustituible que vivirá para siempre en nuestrxs corazones y a través de sus efectos en nuestras comunidades. Sabemos que fue amada por muchxs, y su legado se puede sentir más allá de fronteras y naciones.

Después de haber huido de Guatemala, Fernanda luchó por su propio acceso al asilo y al de otras personas trans, lo que llevó a cambios en las políticas danesas e internacionales, y la posibilidad de requerir asilo en Dinamarca basado en el ser trans y la persecución.

Dentro de TransAktion fue consejera y facilitadora, y muchxs de ustedes tuvieron el privilegio de compartir espacios con ella. Realmente amaba el trabajo que hacía y encontró una profunda alegría en poder conectarse con todxs ustedes. Luchó todos los días para estar presente por y en nuestras comunidades, y fue una activista verdaderamente dedicada a la que le apasionaba crear espacios y apoyo entre, por y para lxs más marginadxs dentro de nuestras comunidades trans. Era una feminista orgullosa, que vio la belleza y el gran poder en todas las cosas femeninas.

Gracias Fernanda por ser una amiga maravillosa, una compañera de trabajo increíble e inspiración para muchxs. No hay palabras lo suficientemente bellas para hacer justicia a tu persona. Te amamos, te extrañamos y sabemos que estás en paz, tal vez incluso finalmente reunida con tu perrita Shatzy ❤

Se compartirá pronto el lugar y hora donde vamos a conmemorar a Fernanda.

Content note: Dette opslag vedrører dødsfald.

Det er med et meget tungt hjerte at vi må meddele, at Fernanda Milán afgik ved døden d. 3. juli 2022. Hun døde tidligt om morgenen på tragisk og pludselig vis som følge af hjertestop. Fernanda delte sin latter og medfølelse med alle dem hun mødte. Hun er en uerstattelig ven, en fighter og aktivist, som vil leve videre i vores hjerter og gennem hendes indflydelse på vores miljøer. Vi ved, at hun var elsket af mange, og hendes eftermæle kan mærkes på tværs af landegrænser og nationer. Efter hun flygtede fra Guatemala organiserede Fernanda både for sin egen og andre transpersoners adgang til asyl, hvilket medførte ændringer i den danske såvel som den internationale lovgivning på området, og sikrede muligheden for at søge asyl på baggrund af status som transperson og forfølgelse. I TransAktion var hun rådgiver og facilitator, og mange af jer har haft privilegiet af at dele oplevelser med hende. Hun elskede oprigtigt sit arbejde og fandt dyb glæde i at møde og skabe relationer med jer alle. Hun kæmpede hver dag for at være aktivt til stede i og for vores miljøer og var vitterlig en dedikeret aktivist, som var passioneret for at skabe rum og støttende fællesskaber med og for de mest marginaliserede i vores transmiljøer. Hun var en stolt feminist, som så skønhed og styrke i alt feminint. Tak, Fernada, for at være en fantastisk ven, en skøn kollega og en inspiration for så mange. Der findes ingen ord smukke nok til at beskrive din person. Vi elsker dig, vi savner dig og vi ved at du har fået fred, måske endda genforenet med din lille hund Shatzy ❤ Deltaljer vedrørende mindehøjtidelighed deles snarest.

Gooodt nyt!! FNs Menneskerettighedskomite har i dag meddelt, at de vil tage Suryanis sag op. Det betyder, at Flygtningenævnets udvisning sættes i bero, mens komiteen behandler sagen. Sagsbehandlingstiden kan være meget lang, så vi opfordrer stadig Flygtningenævnet til at genoptage sagen. Men stor lettelse over, at udvisningen er blevet stoppet på målstregen for nu. Tak for støtten indtil nu!!! Og hold øje, vi får måske brug for jer igen.

Gooood news!! The UN Human Rights Committee today announced that the committee will take Suryani's case under consideration. This means that the deportation has been stopped while the committee considers her case. This may take a long time, so we still urge the Danish Refugee Board to reopen Suryani's case. But great joy that the deportation has been stopped for now. Thanks for your support so far!!! Keep an eye out, we might need you again.

When will The Refugee Board listen? Save Suryani!

Please support Suryani in her fight for the reopening of her asylum case in Denmark. Please sign the petition and share it with your friends.

Suryani is a transwoman from Malaysia. She has tried to live as a woman for several years, but she still has big problems in her home country almost every time she is in touch with authorities and has to show her official ID. On the ID, it says that she is a man – so every time she goes out on the s…

Though you can not control the reactions of the general population you can prevent them by giving the proper political attention. “The abuses within the states are systematic but under reported. The response, at both a national and international level, almost, without exception, inadequate” as said by Charles Radcliff. (Chief of Global Issues, OHCHR)
