Legal Guide for Trans and Queer Youth

Do you know what rights trans and queer people—including youth—have in the Czech Republic? Where can you turn if someone discriminates against you or attacks you, and you're not sure whether it's even worth reporting?

At this workshop with a lawyer from Trans*parent, you'll learn how the official gender change process works and what to do in cases of discrimination or hate speech. In short, you'll get a practical legal manual for everyday life—from access to healthcare to possible administrative changes or protection in challenging situations.

There will also be space for sharing and somatic exercises led by a coach and therapist, who will teach you how to stay calm and grounded in these moments.
