Na skupu pod nazivom “Prava na jednakost, život i bezbijednost ličnosti: prevazilaženje barijera za transrodne osobe” biće predstavljena crnogorska iskustva u vezi sa tretmanom transrodnih osoba.
U ovoj godini još uvijek nije došlo do napredka u tretmanu transrodnih osoba u javnom zdrastvenom sistemu. LGBT Forum Progres još uvijek čeka odgovor Ministra zdravlja dr Miodraga Radunovića u vezi zahtjeva da trijadni proces rodne konfirmacije transrodnih osoba (psihoterapija, hormonski tretman i hiruška operacija) uvrsti u sistem zdrastvene zaštite na teret Fonda za zdrastveno osiguranje Crne Gore. Parlamentarni Odbor za zdrastvo, rad i socijalno staranje Skupštine Crne Gore se pozitivno odnio prema predlogu iz Progresa i zaključio da će ga imati u vidu pri razmatranju predloga novog zakona o zdrastvenom osiguranju. Položaj transrodnih osoba kvalitetno je obuhvaćen najnovijim izvještajem o ljudskim pravima Akcije za ljudska prava a prava ovih osoba biće tretirana i u specijalizovanom izvještaju na kojem su zajednički počeli da rade Centar za građansko obrazovanje i LGBT Forum Progres.
Skupu, koji se održava na ekspertskom nivou, iz Crne Gore prisustvuje i zamjenica crnogorskog Ombudsmana Marijana Laković. Institucija Ombudsmana prepoznata je i na međunarodnoj sceni kao veoma aktivna u promovisanju, zaštiti i poboljšanju položaja LGBT osoba. Lokalna LGBT populacija, uz NVO sektor, ima visoko povjerenje u ovu nacionalnu instituciju.
