CRC Timeline Argentina 2017-18:

• September 2017: Pre-session NGO Report by StopIGM.org, presenting providing solid evidence of how today healthy intersex children are still submitted to IGM, paid for by the Universal Health Care System under the oversight of the Argentinian Ministry of Health, causing lifelong severe pain and suffering (see above).
