Learning Trans Options

[SusanForrest]

Hi all. Just wanted to introduce you to learningtrans.org.



The goal of learningtrans.orgis to produce, and to highlight trans community-produced knowledge.

This is something that wet have been thinking about quite a bit. We are just starting to envision all of what this could look like; the extent of community-generated knowledge, and ways in which community folk, academics, service providers, and others (and those in overlapping categories) could share our work with each other.

We are envisioning things like the following (and this is not intended to limit us in any way – we’re open to everything our community generates that builds our body of knowledge, skills, and creativity):

• creating videos which agencies can use to train their staff, and
• sharing videos of talks and presentations;
• writing and disseminating fact sheets, information sheets, & brochures;
• powerpoint presentations;
• arranging technical assistance;
• linking folks in various communities to each other;
• posting videos of performances and events;
• art, music, writing;
• whatever we can do with the skills we bring to bear to make sure that the knowledge generated by and for our own communities are broadly disseminated.
