Through our work, we amplify the voices of sex workers, create a unified community of sex workers, promote the recognition of human rights, and foster positive change within the community. Sisonke conducts workshops, training, outreach, advocacy, sensitization, and media engagement for the reintegration of sex workers into communities free from stigma and discrimination. Our movement advocates for the decriminalization of sex work.
Help us achieve the decriminalisation of sex work and build a society that is more inclusive and equitable.
Our human rights are under attack. Sisonke remains strong and active in the fight for freedom, safety, and the decriminalisation of sex work in South Africa. We call on donors and partner to support the movement.
