Transgender rights refer to the legal and social recognition of individuals whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth. This includes the right to express one's gender identity freely, access healthcare, and receive protection from discrimination in various areas such as employment, housing, and education.
Advocacy for transgender rights aims to ensure that transgender individuals, including those who identify as non-binary or genderqueer, have equal opportunities and protections under the law. Many organizations work to raise awareness and promote policies that support the rights and dignity of transgender people in society.
