According to the International Charitable Foundation «Alliance for Public Health», as of 2020, the estimated number of trans people in Ukraine was 9,9631. In recent years, through the joint efforts of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and community-based organizations, it has been possible to expand the access of trans people to health and rights in Ukraine, in particular by operating a network of shelters, protecting the rights of trans people, establishing a network of friendly doctors, etc.
After February 24, 2022, when the Russian Federation launched a full-scale military invasion of the territory of Ukraine, the needs and demands of all key communities, including trans people, changed.
