This book is essential for healthcare professionals, social scientists, and students engaged in gender studies or medical care who seek to deepen their understanding of trans healthcare needs and improve inclusivity in their practice.

Global perspectives on trans and gender diverse healthcare – predominantly written from lived trans experiences.

Description

Although social scientists and practitioners have shown an increased interest in the inclusion of trans persons in recent years, the current position of this group in the medical, psychological, and nursing care system remains under-researched. Studies tend to merge the issues of gender diversity and sexual diversity, rendering the lived experiences of trans persons invisible. In addition, trans people often face a discriminatory environment in which they are pathologised and stigmatized as mentally ill.

Trans Health – Global Perspectives on Care for Trans Communities addresses trans people's access to healthcare from a transnational perspective and offers courses of action to improve nursing, medical, therapeutic, and social care for trans persons. Most contributions of this book are written from a lived trans experience.
