Summary

The goal of this project is documenting human rights violations against transgender (TG) people in the CzechRepublic. Special attention will be paid to questions of access to the labour market, parental rights, hate crimes, and also to the situation of TG people in prison. The documentation will be accompanied by monitoring steps of governmental institutions in relation to TG people and subsequently encouraging Czech authorities to improve current practice. In light of present absence of any research focused on the position of TG people we set as our aim to be the first to gather objective information in this field in the CzechRepublic.
