The Voices and Demands of Positive Sex Workers: Briefing Paper 06

The Voices and Demands of Positive Sex Workers: Briefing Paper #06
HIV prevention efforts are being scaled up globally, to target sex workers as a key affected population in the HIV response. The voices and experiences of sex workers living with HIV are too often rendered invisible: this means that the additional needs and rights of sex workers living with HIV are often overlooked in forums that support the rights of general populations of people living with HIV. This paper sets out the demands of positive sex workers articulated by sex workers themselves.

South-to-South Mentoring Toolkit for Key Populations

South-to-South Mentoring Toolkit for Key Populations
S2S mentoring implies that all organizations involved, mentor and mentee(s), are rooted in the global South and have direct experience operating in complex low- and middle-income countries. Mentoring can be provided more regularly and more efficiently by organizations in the same or neighboring countries and is often more readily accepted when the mentor’s messages, approaches, experiences, and lessons learned come out of a similar setting.

Research for Sex Work, Issue 13: HIV and Sex Work, the View from 2012

Research for Sex Work, Issue 13: HIV and Sex Work, the View from 2012
This issue of research for sex work reflects a small shift. Here, HIV and sex work don’t mean an array of epidemiologically oriented studies, but the frame for critiques of and questions about policy, laws, and programmes. Articles not written by sex workers themselves base their conclusions on what sex workers say. Here, no one tells sex workers how to run their lives.
