Intersex Awareness Day is an internationally observed awareness day each October 26, designed to highlight human rights issues faced by intersex people.

The term Intersex refers to a person who has variations of male and female physical, hormonal, or genetic sex traits which can appear at birth or later in life. Intersex people are estimated to be born in approximately 2% of live births.
