Presentation of the Study on the needs and demands of non-binary people in Spain – Ministry of Equality

The Spanish Ministry of Equality presented on 14 July the “Study on the needs and demands of non-binary people in Spain”, coordinated by the General Directorate of Sexual Diversity and LGTBI Rights. The Principal Investigator of the BinaSex Project, Blanca Rodríguez Ruiz, has participated in some of the phases of the elaboration of the study, together with other academics.

The study consists of three blocks. The first, entitled “Conceptualisations and the emergence of non-binarism in the Spanish context”, gathers non-binary people’s own understandings of the concepts of gender non-binarism, non-binary person and non-binary experience; and provides an analysis of the conditions, agents and environments that are key to the emergence of non-binarism in the Spanish context.

The second section, entitled “Non-binary people in the Spanish context”, gathers key elements in the interaction of non-binary people with the context, identifying elements that, in a transversal manner, appear in the accounts of different areas of life. It also identifies the main needs and demands of non-binary people in different public and private spheres, such as health, administration and public spaces, work, family, sex-affective relationships, education and leisure and rest.

The final section includes the main conclusions, challenges and recommendations to meet the needs and demands of non-binary realities in the Spanish context.
