Who We Are
Sisonke meaning “Togetherness” is a movement formed by sex workers and for sex workers. The organization started after sex workers grew tired of being abused, isolated and suffering human rights violations. It was officially launched in the Western Cape, 2003 and has since established offices in six provinces; Western Cape, Eastern Cape, Kwazulu-Natal, Gauteng, Limpopo and North West.
Sisonke has membership all over South Africa and endeavours to set up offices in all nine provinces in the near future. Currently having a head office in Observatory, Cape Town, Sisonke has a staff complement of over 30 employees nationally and continues to grow.
Peer of the Month
Sisonke is proud to announce Josephine Malema as a
Sisonke Peer Of The Month for April 2019, a second for Limpopo.
