organizations for intersex rights

Organizations for intersex rights work to promote awareness, defend legal protections, and improve healthcare for people born with variations in sex characteristics that don’t fit typical definitions of male or female. They advocate against non-consensual surgeries on intersex infants, promote bodily autonomy, and fight discrimination. These groups aim to ensure intersex individuals can live openly, access appropriate medical care, and enjoy equal rights. Their work involves education, policy change, support services, and raising public understanding to foster inclusion and respect for intersex people’s human rights.
