Background Paper
Exploratory project
This call for evidence is an open call for views on some of the issues we want to explore in more detail, including:
The aim of our project is to contribute information and insight on these issues to inform and support practitioners and policy-makers, to contribute to the broader public debate, and, ultimately, to improve the well-being of gender diverse and gender incongruent children and adolescents by helping ensure they receive ethical, appropriate, and high-quality care.
We would like to hear from as many people and organisations as possible who have an interest in the care and treatment of children and adolescents in relation to their gender identity. In particular, we would like to hear from anyone with personal experience of using gender identity services or supporting someone to use those services. Anyone is welcome to respond to this call for evidence, which is open until Friday 14 May.
The responses to this call for evidence will form an important step in our evidence gathering and play a significant role in influencing this project and its final conclusions. We will also be undertaking a range of other evidence-gathering activities to ensure that we can hear from a diverse range of people.
If you have any questions or would like to be involved in any further opportunities to contribute or alert us to people/organisations that may be interested in this work, please contact gender@nuffieldbioethics.org.
