Welcome to the Aotearoa New Zealand Trans and Non-Binary Health Survey, Counting Ourselves.
Counting Ourselves is an anonymous community-led health survey for trans and non-binary people living in Aotearoa New Zealand. Our first survey was from 21 June until 30 September in 2018. The exciting news is that our second survey will be launched this year, in July 2022.
Our first community report was published in November 2019. Click on the cover image below to download a copy of the full report or smaller sections including the Executive summary, Conclusions and recommendations, media release or survey questions.
This report belongs to us all now – as a resource to bring about long overdue change.
Look out for updates on our Facebook page and in the News section of this website.
