Tributes have started flowing for Tasmanian transgender activist Roz Houston, who passed away in Burnie on Monday after a long illness.

Houston — a passionate human rights campaigner — was said to be one of the first transgender Tasmanians to openly speak out against transphobia and discrimination in the southern state.

Tasmanian transgender spokeswoman Martine Delaney hailed Houston as a "trailblazer."
