How can I get involved in your community?

The best way to be involved is to become a member. Our members enjoy the widest range of benefits, including setting TGEU’s direction and goals.

As a member, you can:

Connect to the movement with our network listserv, including trans-info Europe and TGEU members. These listservs provide vital information exchange between trans communities.
Attend the European Transgender Council. This is the largest gathering of trans activists in Europe and Central Asia. The Council is held every two years to align joint goals and strategies.
Vote for TGEU leadership and direction. Every two years, TGEU members vote for our Board, as well as approve our strategic direction. Members are also eligible to run to be Board Members.
