WPATH is proud to announce that our Board Director’s member Prof. Tamara Adrian has been named as one of the Promundo Future of Manhood Honorees.
“These Future of Manhood honorees were nominated by an advisory board of 24 global experts, academics, and practitioners on the topic of gender justice. Honoree Tamara Adrián, a Venezuelan member of parliament and transgender activist, has also stepped out – specifically as a voice for sexual diversity in public office and in the international development community – promoting dignity and equality as necessary pillars to combat the current state of injustice facing women and girls everywhere”.
