Derechos Humanos Y Personas Intersex – documento temático (español)

March 16, 2017 by Editorial

We are happy to present the spanish translation of the Issue Paper on “Human Rights and Intersex people” by the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Council of Europe Mr. Nils Muižnieks (Derechos Humanos Y Personas Intersex – documento temático en español).

The paper comprehensively maps how the medical norms of so-called female and male bodies have led to routine, non-consensual, medical interventions based on the misheld belief that sex is a dichotomy.

The document also highlights the shame and secrecy around intersex bodies that allow these practices to go on for decades now, while the human rights of intersex people have been at stake and, for the most part, unaddressed.
