It is with great pleasure that Acesso Cultura presents the trans-inclusive rider. It is a document that aims to help cultural organisations to welcome – in an inclusive, informed, respectful way – trans colleagues, collaborators or artists.

It is a Word document, constantly updated and adaptable to each organisation or person. The cultural organisation can use it to inform about its policy for welcoming trans people. Trans people can use it to inform the organisation in advance about any specific needs.

We would like to thank ILGA Portugal, Lila Tiago, Mafalda Sebastião and Thursday Edral for all their support and comments in the development of this rider.

This document comes after our access rider, presented last year, which aims to help cultural organisations to welcome Deaf and disabled cultural professionals. Both are available, in Portuguese and English, in the Resources and Publications section on our website.
