ILGA Publishes First Global Intersex Legal Mapping Report

ILGA World published its inaugural Intersex Legal Mapping Report, covering all 193 UN member states. The report found that 181 states (94%) had made no sufficient legal attempt to protect intersex bodily integrity. Only six UN member states — Germany, Greece, Iceland, Malta, Portugal, and Spain — had laws prohibiting unnecessary medical interventions on intersex minors, and only Greece and Malta had specific sanctions for violations. Just seven states had anti-discrimination protections explicitly based on sex characteristics.
