MOVEMENT & CAPACITY BUILDING
We strengthen ESWA members through leadership development, organisational support, peer exchange, and sustainable capacity-building. We invest in regional solidarity and cross-border collaboration, ensuring that sex worker-led organisations have the tools and resources to thrive in increasingly hostile environments.
RESEARCH & EVIDENCE BUILDING
We produce and support community-led, evidence-based research that documents lived realities, exposes rights violations, and challenges misinformation. By centring sex workers’ knowledge and expertise and generating rigorous, independent, and intersectional evidence, we contribute to public understanding, inform academic and policy debates, and build a durable evidence base for structural change.
ADVOCACY & STRATEGIC LITIGATION
We lead bold, rights-based campaigns that mobilise allies, influence European and national policy spaces, and counter anti-rights agendas. Alongside advocacy, we pursue strategic legal action to challenge harmful laws, secure rightsaffirming jurisprudence, and build stronger legal protections. By combining public campaigning with targeted litigation, we aim to create both immediate impact and long-term structural change.
