SWASA

She is a fighter! We salute her struggles. No one can take away the fact that she won her matches and got within reach of an #Olympic2024Gold

CBO Planning Meeting 2024 in Dhaka Bangladesh. Sixteen community leaders along with representatives from two partner organizations and the Sex Workers Network gathered on 26 June 2024 in Dhaka to plan activities for SWASA Bangladesh.

Sex workers and Allies from Nepal protest against the SR-VAW’s deeply stigmatizing & insulting report, which is a violation of the rights of sex workers. #ChallengingtheSRVAWReport #ProtectVAWs #UNAct @meenaseshu @AarthiPai @ShantiTiwari9 @SWASASouthAsia @SwasaBangladesh

Everyone deserves the right to work, including sex work, to choose their occupation and to fair and safe working conditions. These are fundamental human rights that ensure dignity and opportunity for all. Let's continue to advocate for workplaces that uphold these principles! #HumanRights #FairWork #DignityAtWork #SexWorkIsWork @GlobalSexWork @SexualRights

Leaving Geneva for Austria. I want to thank all stakeholders for their engagement with my report, for the opportunity to present a bold agenda for human rights in the context of drug use. I urge all member states to decriminalize and destigmatize. HARM REDUCTION is the way!!!

Violence against sex workers should be prevented and addressed by states in partnership with sex worker-led organizations. @WHO at the 56th HRC in response to the @UNSRVAW report on 'prostitution'. Thank you, WHO. Evidence and science back your entire statement. @SWASASouthAsia

'Violence against sex workers should be prevented and addressed by states in partnership with sex worker-led organizations.' @WHO stands with sex workers!#DecrimSexWork #HRC56 #WeAreNotProstituted @UNSRVAW #Challengecrim @meenaseshu @SwasaBangladesh @Account4All @NepalSwasa

Hon. Supreme Court of India passed an order to protect rights of sex workers according to Art 21 of the constitution. But the statement from #india at the @UN_HRC on the report of the @UNSRVAW did not align with Supreme Court. @IndianExpress @IndiaUNGeneva @SWASASouthAsia

'Effective, evidence-based health services should be made available, accessible, acceptable to sex workers, as part of everyone’s enjoyment of right to health.' @WHO stands with sex workers! Other UN systems' silent? #DecrimSexWork #SexWorkIsWork @Account4All @meenaseshu @UNSRVAW

@UNSRVAW report on prostitution is deeply biased, exclusionary. It violates basic tenet of human rights-inclusion of marginalised voices in decisions that impact them. #Challengecrim #DecrimSexWork #SexWorkIsWork #DecriminalisingSexWork @Account4All @meenaseshu @SwasaBangladesh

@UN_HRC @UNSRVAW @UN @NepalSwasa @SWASASouthAsia #SexWorkisWork sex workers must be protected and not criminalised. The right language, access to all services, framing of policy and laws are what is needed.
