Sanad: A Center for Bodily Justice is an initiative built by and for trans communities. We create spaces for connection, guidance, and support, ensuring community members have access to the tools and knowledge needed to navigate legal, medical, social, and everyday challenges. Our work is rooted in mutual care, peer support, and collective action. Too often, trans individuals face barriers when trying to access legal recognition, medical care, and community support. These systems can feel isolating, bureaucratic, and overwhelming. Sanad exists to change that -- we work to make these processes easier, more accessible, and rooted in community. No one should have to go through it alone. Established in 2025, Sanad grew from years of trans-focused work by Qorras (local civil society organization) and other trans activists. While Qorras played a key role in supporting its emergence, Sanad stands as an independent center shaped by the experiences, voices, and visions of its members.

This initiative then grew to include individual activists, locals and internationals, who worked together (literally meaning ‘Sawa’ in Arabic) to share their knowledge and exchange their experiences in order to support Syrians, internally displaced or refugees in neighbouring countries, united by their belief in their right to live in dignity and freedom, and to be active individuals in their communities, and wherever they are. Sawa sees itself as part and parcel of the society, and that it is on a continuous learning journey based on a participatory relationship at all levels with the communities that it works with, whether host or displaced, as well as with local and international partners. Sawa believes that humanitarian, developmental and civic work has to always strive to achieve social justice, and so it aims to work with individuals and communities through holistic interventions towards a society based on democracy, pluralism, and values of citizenship and human rights.
