Global communities celebrate International Transgender Day of Visibility
全球社群慶祝國際跨性別現身日
Every year on March 31, global communities honor International Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV).
每年3月31日，全球社群都會紀念「國際跨性別現身日」(TDOV)。
Established in 2009 by activist Rachel Crandall-Crocker, this important day celebrates the accomplishments, joy, and resilience of transgender and gender-expansive individuals.
這個重要的日子是由行動主義者瑞秋·克蘭德爾-克羅克於2009年設立，旨在慶祝跨性別與性別多元者的成就、喜悅與韌性。
Unlike the Transgender Day of Remembrance in November, which honors those lost to violence, TDOV focuses on the beauty and success of the living.
與11月悼念那些因暴力而逝去生命的「跨性別紀念日」不同，TDOV聚焦於活著的人們之美好與成功。
While TDOV is a time for celebration, it also functions as a powerful call to action.
雖然TDOV是一個慶祝的時刻，它同時也發揮了強而有力的行動號召功能。
As political hostility towards the LGBTQ+ community rises in many regions, the need for visibility remains urgent.
隨著許多地區對LGBTQ+社群的政治敵意不斷升高，現身的需求依然迫切。
Through collective efforts, TDOV reminds us that visibility is a fundamental tool for progress, aiming to ensure that all individuals can live their lives with dignity, safety, and pride.
透過集體努力，TDOV提醒我們，現身是推動進步的基本工具，旨在確保所有人都能在尊嚴、安全與自豪中過生活。
