Genspect's "The Bigger Picture" Conference

Over three days at the end of April, Genspect will host its first-ever conference in Killarney, Ireland, while down the street, the European Professional Association for Transgender Health (EPATH, sister organisation to WPATH) holds its own annual conference. These side-by-side events will present competing approaches to understanding and treating gender distress: EPATH focuses narrowly on medicalisation, while speakers and symposia at Genspect’s conference will present “The Bigger Picture” – the title of this ground-breaking conference.

For years, proponents of gender medicine have loudly insisted that the “science is settled”, arguing that hormones and elective surgeries are “necessary” and even “life-saving.” Attendees at the Killarney EPATH conference will hear further reporting from this narrow perspective, rooted in medicalization. However, at the Genspect event, there will be experts from many different fields discussing a myriad of perspectives. Eminent scientists, researchers, sociologists, psychologists, psychotherapists, lawyers, educators, feminists, trans people and detransitioners will together explore the deeper meaning of gender identity, challenge the evidence base for gender medicine, and describe the widespread damage that gender identity ideology has wrought.
