August is Transgender History Month


This August, we honour the rich, complex and often overlooked histories of transgender and gender diverse people, recognising that many cultures across the world have long acknowledged genders beyond the Anglocentric gender binary.


Trans people are not a new phenomenon. Across cultures and throughout history, transgender and gender diverse people have always existed, contributing to their communities through leadership, creativity, activism and care.


Trans history is not only about discrimination and struggle. It is also about joy, resistance, art, kinship, love and community.


This month, consider reading a book by a transgender author, learning about trans activists and changemakers, or listening to the lived experiences of transgender and gender diverse people.


By learning from the past, we can build a more inclusive future.

I acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land where I live and work, the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nations. I acknowledge that this land was never ceded and always was, always will be Aboriginal land. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging.

I celebrate, value and include people of all backgrounds, genders, sexualities, cultures, age groups, spiritual beliefs, physical abilities and disabilities.
