European Network for the Investigation of Gender Incongruence

The European network for the investigation of gender incongruence is a group of people who study and try to understand why some people feel like they were born in the wrong body. This is called gender incongruence.

So, let's say someone is born a girl but they feel like they are really a boy. The people in this network want to figure out why this happens and what they can do to help these people feel more comfortable in their bodies.

They talk to lots of different people who feel this way and try to learn as much as they can about them. They also study different treatments that can help make these people more comfortable in their bodies, like hormone therapy or surgery.

Overall, the network is trying to help people who feel like their gender doesn't match the body they were born with. They want to make these people feel more comfortable and accepted, and also learn more about why gender incongruence happens in the first place.
