The Victoria's Trans History Report provides an overview of the legislative, medical, and social histories of trans and gender diverse (TGD) people in Victoria.

The report explores:

structural and legal barriers that have disadvantaged TGD people
processes that led to legal, health and social reforms to improve the lives of transgender Victorians
strategies that transgender people deployed – either as individuals, within organisations or as activists – to challenge discrimination and support each other
successes and shortcomings of past reforms
changing priorities, challenges and needs of TGD people in Victoria

The main sources for the report come from:

newspaper reports, accessed through Trove (National Library of Australia), interview participants’ personal archives and online database Factiva
