Yet we are also more than that, we share dreams, hopes, joys and worries similar to everyone else. Our interests and lived realities vary as much as for everyone else.
This campaign is based on a workshop during the previous OII Europe Community Event in Zagreb 2019, where the intersex community collected and shared short personal quotes of our dreams, hopes and fears: What makes us proud? What gives us joy?
Many of the things in the personal quotes will sound familiar, other quotes are more directly related to the life situation of intersex persons – a few of these issues are highlighted in focus points on this website: Health, trauma, discrimination, work & education and acceptance.
In the footer of the website you will find further links and resources to informational documents, statements and resolutions, and please make sure to visit our website: www.oiieurope.org
During the Intersex Awareness Weeks (Oct.26 - Nov.8) we post a selection of the quotes the community provided in last years workshop via our social media channels. Since we have many more quotes than we are able to share here we will work on something for the upcoming IDAHOBIT in May 2021. Stay tuned for more info :)
