New Delhi: The National Commission for Women organized its first-ever Consultation for transwomen; 'Inclusion Amplified, Transwomen in India: Problems and Prospects' to address the misconceptions leading to the stigma attached to the community's individuals and to spark a conversation with regard to their acceptance and participation in the society.
Through this consultation, the commission sought to offer a broad platform to academicians, researchers, social activists, policymakers, civil society members, and trans-women themselves to analyze problems which they face in various arenas and to discuss future directions and policy proposals for the welfare of trans-women, the NCW said in a press release.
