Did not learn anything new apart from the part about India - which was irrelevant.
Very rewarding module with great emphasis on theory which raises awareness and understanding about various topics.
An interesting and informative course. We all deserve the right to freely express our identity.
Very informative.

Most Maytree volunteers will probably already be familiar with this material - although some of the gender-neutral pronouns were new to me. The danger is that people tend to to stop paying attention, especially when the interface compels them to play each video through to the end. I think this course should have addressed some of the common criticisms made by those who do not accept the fullest interpretations of trans rights - because these are still live debates, even among those who are militantly opposed to discrimination in every other field. I would personally prefer the option of reading the content rather than watching it on screen. I think online comprehension tests are good, though. What is really needed is carefully at expertly facilitated discussion among people who trust each other in a space of acceptance and kindness.
I listened to Sophie’s story and found her very inspirational to herself and to others going through similar circumstances.
The Gender Identity and Expression training provides a great introduction to gender identity and expression, and the differences between sex and gender. While it does acknowledge that not everybody's experiences are the same, I think it could include some information about gender euphoria for example, and some of the positive things trans people might experience, as well as, how others can not only be better allies, but help to facilitate the positive experiences of trans people.
A short course that covers a wide range of topics in a comprehensive way. A good start point for anyone who would like to know more about Gender Identity and Expression and doesn't know where to start.
