International Transgender Day of Visibility
An annual observance on March 31 celebrating transgender and non-binary people worldwide and raising awareness of challenges they face.
Established in 2009 by activist Rachel Crandall, the International Transgender Day of Visibility highlights the achievements of transgender and non-binary individuals around the globe. Unlike other observances that focus on remembrance, this day emphasizes visibility, empowerment, and positive representation. Communities host events ranging from rallies and educational workshops to art exhibitions and social media campaigns. The day also serves to advocate for legal rights, healthcare access, and social acceptance while acknowledging ongoing discrimination. By celebrating diversity, the observance fosters solidarity and encourages allies to support transgender inclusion and equality.
