Peru promotes mutilation of intersex children
Two medical protocols from Peru's National Institute of Child Health, from 2015 and 2020, recommend harmful, irreversible, and medically unnecessary genital surgeries for intersex children.

Several UN agencies have condemned these harmful practices, even calling them torture.
