ESWA is currently working to strengthen access to rights-based health, HIV prevention, and support services for sex workers across Europe. We are part of the European PrEP Alliance, collaborating with researchers, health providers, and community organisations to improve access to PrEP and sexual health services for mobile sex workers and others facing barriers within healthcare systems. Through our European survey, we are documenting the experiences of sex workers who travel, identifying challenges in accessing health services, and advocating for stigma-free, inclusive healthcare across Europe.

Beyond HIV and sexual health advocacy, ESWA is expanding its work to improve the quality of support available to sex workers by training health and social care professionals, including therapists, to provide informed, non-judgmental, and sex worker-centred care. Building on our sex worker therapist training programme, we aim to expand capacity among professionals and create stronger networks of providers who understand the specific realities and needs of sex workers.

ESWA also continues to invest in community leadership and advocacy through initiatives such as the Spark Fellowship, which supports emerging sex worker advocates and strengthens the next generation of community leaders. Following the success of the first programme, we plan to run the fellowship again soon.

We work closely with partners including IPPF, HIV Outcomes, EATG, TGEU, and the SexSense network, while developing new partnerships to advance sex workers’ rights, health equity, and community-led approaches throughout Europe.
