NBC News - Peru classifies transgender identities as 'mental health
problems' in new law
LGBTQ advocates in Peru protested in the capital city of Lima last week
after the Health Ministry issued a new law that deemed transgender
people as having “mental health problems.â€
The supreme decree, signed by Peruvian President Dina Boluarte and
published May 10, updated the ministry’s list of insurable mental health conditions to include “transexualism,†“gender identity disorders†and “cross-dressing.â€
In 2019, the World Health Organization redefined its terms on gender identity-related health, moving conditions of “gender incongruence†out
of being defined as “mental and behavioral disorders†and into the “conditions related to sexual health†category.
“This reflects current knowledge that trans-related and gender diverse identities are not conditions of mental ill-health, and that classifying
them as such can cause enormous stigma,†the guidance reads.
On May 11, the Peruvian Health Ministry released a statement, insisting
that the update is to ensure comprehensive mental health interventions.
“The ministry ratifies its position that gender and sexual diversity are
not diseases.†it stated. “In this framework, we express our respect for gender identities, as well as our rejection of the stigmatization of
sexual diversity in the country.â€
Despite this, the ministry reiterated that the update to the country’s Essential Health Insurance Plan will remain in force.
