Trans Media Watch (TMW) is a British charity founded in 2009 to improve media coverage of transgender and intersex issues.[2][3] By improving media coverage, TMW strives to "foster social acceptance and civil recognition for trans persons", and to prevent the "material consequences" of misrepresentation.[4]

TMW also publishes recommendations for trans people interacting with the media.[5]
