Standing Together on the Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers

Every 17 December, the world marks the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. For KESWA and our member organisations, it is a moment to remember those we have lost, to stand with survivors, and to demand accountability.

Our community-led research has documented high levels of violence — including violence by those meant to protect. We continue to train paralegals, support survivors, and push institutions to investigate and prosecute crimes against sex workers.
