Growing with Pride: Protecting the Rights and Health of Trans Kids – A day of learning, reflection and collaboration
October 9, 2025 @ 9:00 am - 4:30 pm
$220
The Royal Children’s Hospital Gender Service and The Education Hub are proud to host a day of learning, reflection and collaboration across sectors, as we tackle the challenges of an increasingly polarised world.
Trans children and adolescents thrive when they are supported by their family, their community, the health system and government. All children have the right to the highest attainable standard of health. Let’s come together to uphold this right for trans kids.
We invite professionals, parents and carers, as well as trans young people to attend. We will listen to leaders from the health sector, law, ethics, human rights, research and community organisations. Most importantly, we will hear from trans young people and their families.
Speakers:
Ro Allen, Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commissioner
Dr Noah Riseman, Researcher and Educator
Eloise Brook, CEO AusPATH
Sonja Reed, Partner at MinterEllison
A/Prof Ken Pang, Research Lead, Transgender Health Research Group & MCRI
Prof John Tobin, Director of Studies, Human Rights Law, University of Melbourne
Prof Lynn Gillam, University of Melbourne
Dr Cate Rayner, Director, RCH Gender Service
Transgender Victoria and Transcend Australia
