Gendered Intelligence Strategy on a page 2024 – 2029
Our Aims Gendered Intelligence aims to expand understandings of gender and improve trans lives.
Our Vision We imagine a world where many different gender identities and expressions are visible and valued and where trans, non binary and gender questioning people live healthy, safe and fulfilled lives.
Our Work We are a trans-led and trans-involving organisation – we know the needs of the community and have the skills to deliver services that meet them.
We: • Offer services, projects and activities to trans, non-binary, and gender questioning people • Deliver education, training and consultancy services to help organisations improve their inclusive practices • Seek to influence legislation, the media, policy and research at a national level
We believe our work will change cultures, systems and behaviours and lead to an improvement in the quality of life for trans people.

• Passionate - We care about the work we do and how we do it • Professional - We aim for excellence and quality in everything we do • Positive - We believe in the possibility of change for the better, and that our work can achieve that change
