Thirty Years of Intersex Activism: From Medicine to Rights
Original: From Medical Control to Human Rights: Thirty Years of Intersex Activism
Intersex activism has shifted over three decades from challenging medical control over intersex bodies to framing demands as human rights issues. Reflecting on thirty years of advocacy, campaigners have moved from resisting non-consensual surgeries and medical normalization toward securing recognition, legal protection and bodily autonomy, with institutions increasingly engaging intersex rights as a matter of international human rights.
Why now: The milestone of thirty years of intersex activism prompts reflection on progress and remaining challenges in human rights.
