Gypsy, Roma and Traveller (GRT) communities in Britain experience wide-ranging inequalities. Often fuelled by media coverage 'Romaphobic' attitudes, can be found across British society. A (2022) YouGov/UofBirmingham report found they are the most disliked of all communities in the UK.Concurrently, since 2015, the UK has slipped from being the most progressive 'gay rights' nation in Europe - occupying the top spot in the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association's, annual 'Rainbow Map - in 2020 to 10th place and falling. Governmental ambivalence around trans rights and rampant anti-trans rhetoric in the British media, has had a significant negative impact on the quality of life of trans and gender-diverse people.A 2017 Stonewall report found trans, non-binary and gender-diverse children and young people experience disproportionately high levels of mental ill health, whilst Greenfields & Rogers (2020) have highlighted the enormous impact on mental health and suicide ideation of GRT community members of exposure to discrimination and hate crime. This growing resistance to trans rights, paired with persistent racism towards Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities, positions GRT transgender youth in an exceptionally vulnerable intersectional position (BBC/ de Gallier, 2022). However, there is a distinct lack of research about gender-diverse young GRT people, whose voices are rarely heard.This project will result in the first in-depth account of gender-diverse young GRT people's experiences in Britain. It will use heritage sites such as museums, archives and cultural/community hubs as a medium through which to enable young GRT persons to explore and celebrate their experiences of racial and sexual identity and compare their narratives with that of their LBGTQ+ elders.By redressing the lacuna in museum and heritage representation of Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities, this project hopes to bring about social change and empower young gender-diverse GRT people in Britain today

英国的吉普赛人、罗姆人和流浪者社区经历着广泛的不平等。在英国社会中，人们常常会发现，由于媒体报道的推波助澜，人们对“浪漫恐惧症”的态度也越来越强烈。一份（2022）YouGov/UofBirmingham的报告发现，他们是英国所有社区中最不受欢迎的。同时，自2015年以来，英国已经从欧洲最进步的“同性恋权利”国家-占据国际女同性恋，男同性恋，双性恋，跨性别和双性人协会年度“彩虹地图”的榜首-滑落到2020年的第10位并下降。政府对跨性别权利的矛盾心理和英国媒体猖獗的反跨性别言论，对跨性别和性别多元化人群的生活质量产生了重大的负面影响。2017年的一份石墙报告发现，跨性别、非二元和性别多元化的儿童和年轻人的心理健康状况不成比例地高，而Greenfields & Rogers（2020）强调了暴露于歧视和仇恨犯罪对GRT社区成员的心理健康和自杀意念的巨大影响。这种对跨性别权利的日益抵制，加上对吉普赛人，罗姆人和游民社区的持续种族主义，使GRT跨性别青年处于异常脆弱的交叉位置（BBC/ de Gallier，2022）。然而，对于性别多样化的GRT年轻人的研究明显缺乏，他们的声音很少被听到。该项目将首次深入了解英国性别多样化的GRT年轻人的经历。它将利用博物馆、档案馆和文化/社区中心等遗产地作为媒介，使吉卜赛、罗姆人和游民青年能够探索和庆祝他们的种族和性别认同经历，并将他们的叙述与他们的LBGTQ+长者的叙述进行比较。该项目希望带来社会变革，并赋予当今英国年轻的性别多样化的GRT人权力
