Event on 14 September: Self Determination in times of political uncertainty

🌱 Growing Stronger in times of crisis: Our Rights!

Name and Gender Marker Change under the Self-Determination Act (SBGG) in Times of Political Uncertainty – Between “Visibility” and “Safety”

When?
14 September 2025 | 11 am – 3 pm

Where?
f.a.q – infoladen, Jonasstr. 40, 12053 Berlin

🟢 What’s it about?
The event will be a space to share information and discuss uncertainties, such as current developments regarding tightening laws, creation of “lists”, experiences and risks with non-binary gender marker registration and possible military service, and potential impacts of gender markers in official documents. We want to discuss together: visibility or security – what are our decisions based on? We try to carefully consider our decisions together.
The event is aimed at all TIN people who would like to exchange ideas on the topic.

🟢 What awaits you?
After a brief introduction, we invite you to a moderated discussion in large and small groups. Members of the advisory team will also accompany you to help you frame your questions. In the long term, we would like to consider with you whether this space could give rise to further forms of networking or collective self-organization—we want to capture your thoughts and needs as a contribution to a zine.
Come along, get involved, ask questions, share your experiences! No one has to make all this decisions alone.

🟢 Barriers & Accessibility
The location, including the restroom, is wheelchair accessible.
Please come tested. We’ll also provide a small amout of tests. The room will be equiped with air purifiers. Please don’t come to the event if you have any cold symptoms. Please register if you want to participate in the event online.
