Beyond the Binary: Advancing Legal Recognition for Intersex Persons in India

July 9, 2020

 

This Policy Brief proposes the need for legal recognition of intersex persons and intersex rights, given their unique experience and the inability of the overlap between transgender and intersex identities to address all the vulnerabilities and rights of the latter community. Legal recognition of intersex rights creates awareness about the unique identity of intersex persons, can curb IGM and other forms of discrimination and stigma that intersex persons face.
