Extending legal protections for trans communities

By Thomas Vink, 5th February 2026

TGEU will support efforts across multiple European countries to advance the rights of marginalised trans communities and their rights to recognition of private life in the EU.

Specifically, the project will seek to assist trans sub-populations affected further by discrimination on grounds of;

  1. age;
  2. gender identity and expression;
  3. civil status; and/ or
  4. parental status.

Potential litigation steps span across administrative, judicial, appellate, data protection levels.
