The Unite! Advocate! Thrive! Global Trans Conference, held on 20—21 July 2024 in Munich, Germany, convened 200 activists, researchers, policymakers, and community leaders from the trans and gender diverse community. The Conference addressed global issues within this community, with three main program themes: health, human rights, and movement building.

The aim of the health track was to reflect upon what has worked with regard to improving the health outcomes of trans and gender diverse communities, to identify and consider the key health issues and key populations that we need to prioritize, as well as the practical actions we must take to ensure that the global trans and gender diverse community thrives into the future.

This report consolidates the key insights from the health program of the Global Trans Conference, which included one plenary session and four breakout sessions that were specifically designed to address challenges, exchange best practices, and develop strategies for future trans and gender diverse advocacy and GATE’s strategic planning.
