2024 was Trans Justice Project’s biggest year yet. 

We doubled the size of our team, held the first ever Trans Justice Strategy Retreat, launched the Anti-Trans Disinformation Handbook, and stopped the notorious anti-trans campaigner, Kellie-Jay Keen, from entering Australia. 

We’ve done far too much this year to pack into one email.  

Read our 2024 Impact Report for the full story!

Our movement has been fighting for trans justice in a rapidly changing political and social climate. 
Across Australia, we’ve seen some big legal wins. 

Roxane Tickle won her landmark case, confirming that trans women are protected under sex discrimination laws, the same as all other women. And every state and territory has now passed laws allowing people to amend their legal gender without requiring surgery. 

But this year has also seen cynical politicians campaigning on restricting gender affirming care, and our Federal government has abandoned laws protecting us from discrimination in religious settings.

With Trump’s victory in the US, and a looming Federal election here in Australia, we know that we have a challenging time ahead of us.

In this climate, our work has never been more important.

As we look to the year ahead we must continue urgently organising in our communities and fighting for freedom, justice and equality.

It’s going to take all of us, but together, we will build a better future for all trans and gender diverse people.

P.S. 2024 was huge for us, and we’re preparing for 2025 to be even bigger. We rely on donations from our community and supporters to fund this vital work.

One powerful way you can help our movement is by signing up as a solidarity member to make a monthly donation.

We are up against the power and money of the anti-trans lobby, but your donation can help us tip the scales back in our favour.
