Moving beyond medical definitions, the articles in this Special Issue address social, cultural, and political issues faced by intersex people and people with VSCs, including systemic oppression, discrimination, and human rights violations. The articles in the Special Issue were developed from presentations at the international online conference Centring Intersex Issues: Global and Local Dimensions, held on 20?23 February 2023. The conference aimed to create a platform that moved beyond Anglophone and Eurocentric narratives, emphasizing a more inclusive and diverse global perspective on intersex issues. The Special Issue emphasizes the need for a global perspective, critiquing neo-colonial medical practices and advocating for non-pathologizingcal understandings of intersex experiences. Several articles in this Special Issue highlight the importance of co-producing knowledge between intersex and endosex people. They explore global issues such as medical interventions on minors, along with legal and ethical strategies, while addressing local contexts in countries like Aotearoa New Zealand, Australia, Canada, France, Greece, Ireland, Malta, Mexico, and Latin America. 606 $aIntersex$2homoit$3https://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000352 606 $aIntersex variations$2homoit$3https://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000669 606 $aNon-Euro-American gender and sexual identities$2homoit$3https://homosaurus.org/v4/homoit0000322 610 $aVariations of Sex Characteristics 610 $aDisorders/Differences Sex Development 610 $aHuman Rights 610 $aEthics 610 $aLived Experiences 610 $aQualitative research 615 7$aIntersex. 615 7$aIntersex variations. 615 7$aNon-Euro-American gender and sexual identities. 700 $aMonro$b Surya$01786526 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910978308503321 996 $aCentring Intersex$94318262 997 $aUNINA
