Each year between November 13 - 19, people and organizations around the world participate in Transgender Awareness Week to help raise the visibility about transgender people and address issues members of the community face.
During the week transgender people and their allies take action to bring the issues of prejudice, discrimination, and violence that affect the transgender community to the attention of the community by educating the public about who transgender people are, sharing stories and experiences, and advancing advocacy.
The week ends with Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) an annual observance on 20th November that honours the memory of the transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence during the year.
Ang Araw ng Pag-alaala ng Transgender ay itinatag sa Amerika ng tagapagtaguyod ng transgender na si Gwendolyn Ann Smith bilang isang pagbabantay upang igalang ang memorya ni Rita Hester, isang transgender na babae na pinatay sa 1998.
