為跨性別人士保衛人權,成立跨性別資源中心的梁詠恩
Joanne Leung, who has been a tremendous force driving changes on transgender issues, and she is a founder of the Transgender Resources Center


Joanne在改跨性別議題上是一鼓龐大的推動力,為公眾帶來一個正面的形象。她的工作不只限於跨性別群體,更廣泛接觸同性戀、雙性戀、跨性別團體(LGBT)以及整個香港。

於2008年Joanne成立跨性別資源中心,目的是要倡議跨性別人士在社會中的權利。同時為普羅大眾及跨性別人士提供有關跨性別教育資源及正確資訊。

Joanne對提倡LGBT平權的熱誠亦不止於本地工作。她馬不停蹄地出席世界各地相關的會議及訓練;同時在內地、澳門及台灣等地舉行工作坊,倡導本地及界婦女。

Joanne has been a tremendous force driving changes on transgender issues offering the public with a face in positive light. Her work is not only confined to the transgender community, but is one that touches the wider lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community and to Hong Kong as a whole.

She founded the Transgender Resources Center in 2008 to provide educational resources for the public regarding transgender issues, and to provide resources for transgender people when seeking accurate information. The main goal of the organization is to advocate for the rights of transgender people in the society.

Joanne's passion towards promoting LGBT equality is not confined to Hong Kong. She has traveled extensively attending conferences, trainings and providing workshops in China, Macau and Taiwan and beyond, empowering women at home and abroad.
