TransMetropolitan

 

In celebration of the International Day against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia, Manchester Metropolitan University  will be hosting ‘TransMetropolitan’ in the MMU Business School on 17th May 2016.

The event will be a great opportunity to learn more about gender identity and gender expression; hear other people’s stories, and help to shape future university policies on the provision of gender-neutral facilities. It would be great to see as many people there as possible.
