Sign now

Introduction: We, the undersigned, stand in solidarity with transgender women in Morocco and advocate for their fundamental rights to safety and access to hormonal therapy.

We, the undersigned, join hands with Platform Layalat, a network of transgender women sex workers in Morocco, to advocate for the recognition of the rights of transgender women to safety and access to hormonal therapy.

This petition aims to bring attention to the urgent need for comprehensive protections and inclusive healthcare services for transgender women in our community.

History and Importance:

For far too long, transgender women in Morocco have faced systemic discrimination, violence, and limited access to essential healthcare services.

The lack of legal recognition and societal acceptance has subjected them to marginalization and exclusion from basic human rights.

This petition seeks to address these injustices and create a more inclusive society that respects and upholds the rights of all individuals, regardless of their gender identity.

Transgender women in our community face numerous challenges on a daily basis.

They often experience verbal and physical abuse, harassment, and discrimination in various aspects of life, including education, employment, housing, and public services.

Moreover, access to gender-affirming healthcare, such as hormonal therapy, is limited due to social stigma and inadequate support systems.

The Impact of Victory:

By signing this petition, we can make a significant impact on the lives of transgender women in Morocco. Recognition of our rights to safety and access to hormonal therapy will not only improve our overall well-being as a minority but also contribute to a more inclusive society that values diversity. It will send a powerful message that transgender individuals deserve equal rights and protection under the law.

Victory in this campaign will pave the way for comprehensive policies that protect transgender women from discrimination and violence. It will ensure that we have equal opportunities for education and employment without fear of prejudice or exclusion.

Additionally, it will enable us to access gender-affirming healthcare services without facing unnecessary barriers or discrimination.

Important Deadlines:

While there are no specific deadlines mentioned at this time, we urge you to sign and share this petition as soon as possible to demonstrate widespread support for the rights of transgender women in Morocco. Every signature counts and brings us one step closer to achieving justice and equality for all.

Join us in standing up for the rights of transgender women in Morocco. Sign this petition today and help create an inclusive society.
