Trans & Gender Non-Binary Healing Practices

There is a need for complementary healing practices that are culturally literate and led directly by the people. Micro healing grants are small, unrestricted stipends that provide the recipient an opportunity to have space to think about their healing and enquire about healing strategies that are currently not available to them

From our Migrant Trans POC Justice programme we bring forward this piece of working on providing micro-grants designed to give autonomy and dignity to individuals and communities.

From our Trans and Gender Non-Binary Health Justice Programme, we bring forward the work of Nina Rivera, who is an organiser, healer, and advocate of Trans Women's Migrant Rights. She is the recipient of our first Healing grant, where she brought together Trans Migrant Women into a space of Kinship and healing.

These two essays reflect on non-western healing epistemologies, both as an opportunity for healing and as a response to the harms of the western medical industrial complex.
