Update on arrests & public shaming of Durban sex workers👇Following the meeting, metro police removed the images of the women off their Facebook but committed to very little else. We will continue our work to challenge laws that harm & hold authorities accountable✊🏾#decrimsexwork
SWEAT statement on arrest and humiliation of Durban sex workers: 'public sharing of these women’s images shows that the intention is not to enforce the law but to publicly humiliate & show their power over those they are supposed to protect. #decrimsexwork

Recently, supported by @SRJC, SWEAT & @Asijiki held a workshop on the #decrimsexwork strategy with sex workers from the Cape Winelands. Beyond policy change, we’re fostering education and awareness to tackle the stigma and discrimination sex workers face every day. #decrimsexwork
