Election Advocacy Booklet

TGV has developed an election booklet on a range of key issues relevant to trans and gender diverse Australians.

This booklet also contains issues which are of relevance to all LGBTIQ+ Australians because within all the categories of that group there are significant numbers of individuals who identify as trans and gender diverse.

Although TGV’s mission is chiefly to improve the lives and well-being of trans and gender diverse (TGD) Victorians, this document refers to all TGD Australians as the issues raised are relevant across Australia.
