The Intersex Anti-Discrimination Act (Australia)

The Intersex Anti-Discrimination Act in Australia aims to protect individuals born with variations in sex characteristics—intersex people—from discrimination and harmful practices. It prohibits unfair treatment in areas such as health, education, employment, and service provision. The law also restricts non-consensual medical interventions on intersex children, promoting bodily autonomy and respecting intersex individuals' rights. Overall, it seeks to foster equality, ensure safety, and uphold the dignity of intersex people within Australian society.
