This webinar is presented by the National Collaborating Centre for the Determinants of Health (NCCDH).
Action on health equity for transgender and gender-expansive people includes using inclusive language in practice, correcting mis- and disinformation on trans health issues, addressing stigma and discrimination, and dismantling barriers to care for transgender and gender expansive people.
Join us as we learn from a panel of community leaders working actively to support citizen and public health action on inequities related to gender identity. This webinar will explore transgender and nonbinary health equity issues and practical applications to support the Canadian public health field to understand and act on improving health inequities for transgender and nonbinary people.
