Things are really tough as a trans person right now and guidelines and policies often fall short of meaningful support. I am so proud to have created these resources and I hope that they will help a lot of people. Guidelines actually written by trans people are so important!

Having something that looks authoritative can also make a big difference as a resource when advocating for trans inclusivity, so here's a version that goes one step further than our university website and can actually be printed and cited academically: doi.org/10.17613/355...
If you want a six minute summary of how to support trans+ fieldworkers, then why not check out this video we made (voiced by the incredible @izzyvalkyrie.bsky.social)?
Massive thanks to everyone who has been involved with creating these resources! To @niftyfoxcreative.bsky.social for the graphics, to MotusTV for the video, to Research England for the funding, to our focus groups, and, of course to my co-authors @zebracki.bsky.social & @tilenkolar.bsky.social
