Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR) is an annual observance dedicated to honoring and remembering transgender individuals who have lost their lives due to acts of violence, discrimination, and prejudice based on their gender identity or expression. This solemn day serves as a platform to raise awareness about the pervasive issues of discrimination, hatred, and violence that transgender individuals, including sex workers, often face.
For the Lookmai Project, Transgender Day of Remembrance holds profound significance. It serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges and dangers encountered by transgender individuals, particularly those engaged in sex work, within Thai society. By recognizing TDoR, the Lookmai Project aims to shed light on the struggles and injustices that transgender sex workers experience and, in turn, help raise awareness among the wider public.
