AUST | TJP | TRAINING | Overcoming Workplace Anti-Trans Disinformation

[Edited extract from public address]

To combat the anti-trans lobby, our movement needs to understand the tactics they use. In recent years, we have seen a sharp rise in anti-trans disinformation, and increasingly sophisticated strategies to influence our media and decision makers.

We know ahead of the next election that these attacks will only escalate. That’s why we are launching our brand new Anti-Trans Disinformation Training. 

This training will equip organisations, governments, and businesses with the skills to identify and combat the lies spread by the anti-trans lobby. Will you help us fight back by booking in a disinformation training for your workplace?

Our Anti-Trans Disinformation Training has been developed by a trans-led expert team, and can be delivered in-person in Sydney, or remotely over Zoom. Participants will receive valuable skills, resources, and information to help empower and inform their communities.

In the lead up to the next Federal election we know that cynical politicians will seek to weaponise and scapegoat the trans community to try to win and hold onto power. We just saw this strategy play out in the UK election, and we are seeing it now in the US presidential election.

To safeguard the freedom, safety, and equality of trans people, we need a cohort of civil society leaders who are trained and ready to fight in solidarity with our community to help combat anti-trans disinformation. 

By building a strong coalition of resistance, we can show that there is no place for anti-trans politics in Australia. Will you join our coalition of civil society leaders fighting back against the anti-trans lobby by booking a training for your workplace?

A strong and united civil society with the skills and knowledge to combat disinformation is critical to winning a future where all trans and gender diverse people are safe, celebrated, and free. 

By sharing these skills, we can empower our communities, and defeat the anti-trans lobby’s campaign of hate and fear.

Let’s get to work.
In solidarity for trans justice,

Jackie Turner (she/her)Director
