Empowering Trans* People of India 🏳️⚧️🇮🇳
About us
Transgender Welfare Equity and Empowerment Trust (TWEET) aka Tweet Foundation is a community-based organisation registered on May 15th, 2017 to inspire, empower and strengthen Young Trans* Movement in India. The special focus of the Organization was to empower and visibilise leadership among trans* masculine persons. Our mission is the empower and strengthen self-sufficient trans* movement in India. The Goal is to create inclusive and Stigma free society where young trans* people can reach to their fullest potential and live with Dignity. Tweet is a completely trans-led organisation and as a pioneer in India, represents equal partnership among transmen & transwomen. The organisation came to an existence to support work specifically on issues that had not been addressed in other larger HIV or advocacy programmes in past in India. Resources for young trans people have been scarce and the real issues of the community from a social, psychological, economical standpoint have remained unaddressed. Tweet works to provide critical support to young transmasculine and transfeminine persons such as crisis support, short shelter stay, health and legal resources and connecting with skill building and inclusive employment opportunities. On the other hand, Tweet works closely with the stakeholders for mainstreaming advocacy. Tweet works with the government to bring in policy-level changes and works with civil societies and corporates to build strategic partnerships to support the trans movement and trans welfare. Tweet Foundation is a registered society under Mumbai Charity Commissioner (registered in May 2017) . Please reach us - contact@tweetindia.org

Ms. Abhina Aher, Managing Director at TWEET Foundation and Shree Aman shukla, Chief Operating Officer at TWEET Foundation, conducted a sensitisation training with healthcare practitioners in association with Tech Mahindra Foundation for an initiative that aims to foster an inclusive healthcare system. Thank you Tech Mahindra Foundation and Mr. Sajid Ali for involving us and taking these initial steps in building an inclusive healthcare system for all! #HealthcareForAll #InclusiveHealthcare #SenstisedHealthcareProviders #InclusiveIndia
🌈 #HealthcareAccess remains a challenge for the #LGBTQIA+ communities across the globe and in India. There are delays in seeking healthcare because of their LGBTQIA+ identity and fear of #discrimination from healthcare providers. 👩⚕️ Trainers from #SMART Academy for Healthcare came together to discuss the same issue. With an average work experience of 5-6 years in #hospitals, 41% of them have had at least one opportunity to give care to a patient from the LGBTQIA+ community, and all of them found it challenging. Healthcare providers without #training and #education often face challenges in the care of patients in the LGBTQIA+ community. 🏥 We aim to build the capacity of all our #AlliedHealthcare Trainers so that they can prepare their students on LGBTQIA+ #inclusivehealthcare. Thanks to the TWEET Foundation, Abhina Aher and Shree Aman shukla. 🔍 GIZ India, Grant Thornton Bharat LLP and Tech Mahindra Foundation are conducting a study titled, “A Market Assessment on Diversity and Inclusion in Healthcare, with a focus on Women, the LGBTQIA+ community, and Persons with Disabilities." 📌 Requesting all the healthcare companies to support the study. We are also actively contacting #Hospitals for #hiring of trained healthcare professionals from the LGBTQIA+ community. ✉️ Please write to us if you or someone you know is working as HR professional in Healthcare sector and is willing to contribute. #HealthcareforAll #TogetherWeRise #Inclusiveworkplace #DiversityandInclusion #MainBhiHero #career #techmahindracsr #SkillIndia #corporatesocialresponsibility Chetan Kapoor I Nidhi (Dr Kiran) Kewalramani I Dr Shraddha Tendulkar I Supriya Bhatt I swapna shetty I Nidhi Gupta I Jaya Luhana I Sandhya Vashisht I Parveen Naaz I Ejaz Naru I Swati Sharma I Priyanka Kohli I Tanya Arun I Apoorvi Gupta I Healthcare-Careers I Cindy Bordoloi I Shahay Alam | Rohit Bahadur | Akangkhi Borthakur |
