As trans*, inter* and non-binary students are reported to be at a much higher risk for suicide and mental health issues and due to a concerning increase in cases of discrimination at schools we are intensifying our work in this area.
In a cooperation with the LGBTIQ* coordinator for the municipal schools, the Gender Equality Office and the Munich Office for Democracy guidelines for schools to support trans*, inter* and non-binary students in Munich’s municipal schools were produced.
The guidelines were presented to the principals, boys’ and girls’/gender equality officers of the schools and specialized staff in several meetings and there was a lot of positive feedback from principals and teachers alike.
