The World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) is an international organization that aims to advocate for transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) people by promoting safe and effective ways to access and deliver healthcare to maximize psychological health and well-being. One way this is achieved is through the WPATH's published Standards of Care for the Health of Transsexual, Transgender, and Gender Nonconforming People, a set of guidelines for gender-affirming care that is based on the available science and expert consensus. In anticipation of the release of updated guidelines (Standards of Care Version 8) in 2022 the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University hosted an Exploratory Seminar in December 2021 that brought together experts from the United States, Mexico, and the United Kingdom to share knowledge across disciplines in order to propose revisions to the WPATH's updated guidelines. This article shares the workgroup's high-level consensus and recommendations.
世界跨性别健康专业协会（WPATH）是一个国际组织，旨在通过倡导安全有效的方法来获取和提供医疗保健，以最大程度地促进跨性别和性别多样化（TGD）人群的心理健康和福祉。实现这一目标的一种方式是通过 WPATH 发布的《跨性别、跨性别和性别不一致者健康护理标准》，这是一套基于现有科学和专家共识的性别肯定护理指南。为了在 2022 年发布更新的指南（护理标准第 8 版），哈佛大学拉德克利夫高级研究院于 2021 年 12 月举办了一次探索性研讨会，汇集了来自美国、墨西哥和英国的专家，在跨学科领域分享知识，以便对 WPATH 更新的指南提出修订建议。本文分享了工作组的高级别共识和建议。
