Association Spectra Montenegro

Spektra was founded in 2017 by an informal group of trans activists, which operated within the LGBTIQ Association of Queer Montenegro , called "Transovci".

In Montenegro, where there is a strong patriarchal, hetero-normative and cis-normative society, with an emphasized male and violent culture, trans people face violence and discrimination in families, on the streets, workplaces, schools, health care and the legal system. Over the years, trans people have been invisible or misrepresented in our society. Starting from our faith in the changes that will be brought by a movement that is built on values such as non-violence, self-determination, respect for bodily integrity, feminism, equal treatment and equal access to health, social and legal systems, we wanted to give form and a strong voice to trans, gender variant and intersex community, which will bring us equality.
