This study explores the community-based strategies that a group of trans women living in Lima, Peru, employed to resist the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their wellbeing. Data was collected through participant observation and focus group discussions during the implementation of a social aid campaign targeted to this population and analyzed through reflexive theoretical thematic analysis. Resistance strategies were understood as forms of social capital grounded in relations of support and connectedness. Results underscored the importance of social cohesion to ameliorate increasing levels of precarity, community leaders as key for linking trans women across different networks, and unified efforts of social groups who share values to influence institutional power. The analysis also captured barriers and challenges that could hinder the development and articulation of social capital. Fostering trust relations and community-organization should be fundamental components for advocacy programs that seek to support the trans women community.
本研究探讨了一群生活在秘鲁利马的跨性别女性采取的以社区为基础的策略，以抵抗 COVID-19 大流行对她们福祉的负面影响。研究数据是通过对针对这一人群的社会援助运动的参与式观察和焦点小组讨论收集的，并通过反思性理论主题分析进行了分析。抵抗策略被理解为基于支持和联系关系的社会资本形式。研究结果强调了社会凝聚力对于改善日益增加的脆弱性的重要性，社区领袖作为将不同网络中的跨性别女性联系起来的关键，以及具有共同价值观的社会团体为影响制度权力而共同努力的重要性。分析还捕捉到了可能阻碍社会资本发展和表达的障碍和挑战。培养信任关系和社区组织应该是寻求支持跨性别女性社区的宣传计划的基本组成部分。
