To advance the fields of transgender health research and clinical care and center trans-led scholarship, there must be an acknowledgment of the consolidated power in cisgender hands and the subsequent need to redistribute such power to trans experts and burgeoning trans leaders. To redress the social structures that cause harm and limit opportunities for trans persons to lead, current cisgender leaders can take actions including deferring opportunities to trans persons to ensure a redistribution of power and resources to trans experts. This article presents necessary steps to recruit, collaborate, and elevate trans experts.
为了推动跨性别健康研究和临床护理领域的发展,并将跨性别者主导的学术研究置于中心位置,必须认识到顺性别者手中的集中权力,以及随后将这种权力重新分配给跨性别专家和新兴跨性别领导者的必要性。为了纠正那些造成伤害并限制跨性别者领导机会的社会结构,当前的顺性别领导者可以采取行动,包括将机会让给跨性别者,以确保权力和资源重新分配给跨性别专家。本文提出了招募、合作和提升跨性别专家的必要步骤。
