Several ICRSE members, including x-talk, IUSW and Ana Lopes will be participating in an event for International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers hosted by SERTUC LGBT Network
"Join us in observing the 7th annual International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers and remembering those we've lost to violence, oppression, and hate. Whether perpetrated by clients, partners, the police, or the state, we must stand against the cycle of violence experienced by sex workers around the world.
In the wake of the Urugay’s recommendation to the Obama Administration at the Universal Periodic Review to address “the special vulnerability of sexual workers to violence and human rights abuses," we ask that you join us in solidarity to fight the criminalization, oppression, assault, rape, and murder of sex workers and folks perceived as sex workers."
