Gender Dynamix (GDX) was formed in 2006 by a lesbian woman and a transgender man who identified a gap within human rights and social justice activism in relation to information, advocacy, research and capacity enhancement. GDX is also one of the founding members of the Southern Africa Trans Forum. The purpose of the grant is to continue to expand the regional research work. The evidence generated will be used as a basis to further advocate for trans inclusion in policy making and programming by the government.
