FREE PATHH 2016

Organisation

FREE PATHH is organised by a group of approximately 10 trans activists, who started working together in March of 2016, making FREE PATHH a possibility.

FREE PATHH is, as the word states, FREE. That is the reason FREE PATHH is organised by a collective of trans activists, as we don't connect to any specific organisation for transgender people. This allows us to stay independent and guarantees that we are able to give our personal opinions 100% freely, without connected organisations fearing the political implications of their participation.

As a matter of principle, the participants mentioned in the following section will be titled by name and potential affiliations only, disregarding academic titles. A degree does not, after all, guarantee knowledge or competence, as indicated by our motivation.

Volunteers

The collective for the FREE PATHH conference consists of:

Core Group

Rense Havinga, Transgendergroep Nijmegen, and others
Jochem Verdonk, TransMotion Foundation
Vreer Verkerke, Human rights for trans* and inter* people

Group Members

Joska Hendrikx
Nico Lippe
Frederique

Plus all those who don't want to be mentioned by name because of privacy reasons.
