The EEPP project in Moldova was implemented by the GENDERDOC-M Information Centre, the country’s only LGBT community-based and advocacy organisation. The main focus of this organisation’s activity is raising awareness and increasing visibility of LGBT issues, as well as community organisation and provision of services. This project has contributed to GENDERDOC-M’s ongoing efforts in these fields. In 2016, GENDERDOC-M facilitated six meetings for the Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Peer Support Group members, organised a public art exhibition, and screened a film on Transgender Day of Visibility. Within this project, the organisation has managed to draw public attention to the problems faced by trans people (including gender non-conforming people) not only in Moldova but all over the world. Film screening poster Our activities took place around Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR). They included the online and physical distribution of information materials related to TDoR as well as the public screening of Tangerine (2015), a fiction film on black trans sex workers in the USA, thus introducing the local audience to the issue of intersectionality. Prior to the screening, two GENDERDOC-M activists read the entire list of trans and gender non-conforming people who were murdered around the world during the past year. Members of the Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Peer Support Group produced a short video drawing public attention to the violence committed against trans people, which was also screened at the beginning of the event.
