}}Julius Kaggwa is a prominent Ugandan intersex[1] and transgender activist and executive director of intersex support organization Support Initiative for People with atypical sex Development (SIPD).[2][3] In 2010, Kaggwa was a joint winner of the Human Rights First Human Rights Award.[4][5] The following year, he was a joint winner of the Human Rights Defenders Award.[6]

Activism

Kaggwa campaigns on health, support and human rights issues facing intersex people,[6] and also gender non-conforming people, and against the Ugandan "Anti-homosexuality" Bill.[7][8]

Kaggwa has described how intersex infants may be mutilated or terminated due to the stigma surrounding their birth, and mothers may be stigmatized.[10] SIPD aims to change cultural attitudes, and support appropriate medical care.[9] Intersex conditions are viewed as a medical issue, in contrast to homosexuality,[9] but as a committed Christian, Kaggwa argues that violence and discrimination against LGBT people is incompatible with his faith.[10] In 2016, Kaggwa described how increasing discrimination against LGBT people in Uganda has contributed to a lack of safety for intersex people.[11]
