Joint Statement:
European LGBTI Organisations call on the Portuguese Parliament to reject bills attacking trans and intersex rights
IGLYO, ILGA-Europe, OII Europe, TGEU, EL*C, and Bi+ Equal express deep alarm at the three bills due to be debated in the Portuguese Parliament on 19 March and voted on 20 March. These proposals represent a serious attack on the rights, dignity, safety and bodily autonomy of trans and intersex people in Portugal. They would mark a significant regression in a country that has, until now, been regarded as an important point of reference for legal protection in Europe. If adopted into law, Portugal would lose at least 4 places on the ILGA-Europe Rainbow Map ranking — dropping below Sweden, the Netherlands, Ireland, and France.
Proposals due to be debated in Portugal on 19 March and voted on 20 March could pave the way for rollbacks to legal gender recognition, bodily autonomy, and other existing protections for trans and intersex.
The package would strip away protections for people whose gender is not reflected in their identity documents, including young people, migrants and non-binary people, and would remove affirmative, non-discrimination measures in schools. These proposals would also erase protections for intersex children from non-consensual, medically unnecessary interventions — forbidden since 2018 by the same law. Less than 6 months after voting to adopt the Committee of Ministers’ Recommendation on equal rights for intersex persons, this step from Portugal would make it the first to actively regress on intersex rights and clearly undermine even very recent human rights commitments.
We call on the Portuguese Parliament not to join the growing list of countries where trans and intersex people are used as political targets to legitimise wider democratic backsliding. We call on all members of the Portuguese Parliament to reject these bills in full.
