I will give you a glimpse of the states violence against sex workers and how globally, sex workers say the majority of the violence comes from the police.
I will explain how the decriminalization of adult prostitution is a effective harm reduction model that has been proposed by Amnesty International, WHO, Lancet Institute and hundreds of other organizations.
I will explain why anti trafficking groups have failed to reduce the number of minors who are engaging in sex work to survive and discuss strategies that would support our youth and reduce minors in the sex industry.
