SWEAT & Asijiki re in Aotearoa 🇳🇿 learning what decrim looks like in practice.
Clear rules. Consent. Accountability.
This is what decriminalisation makes possible — dignity, protection, agency.
SA deserves the same. ✊🏽

A powerful day of learning in Aotearoa 🇳🇿 Engaging with @DrLynziA & MP Ricardo Menéndez March on what decrim looks like in practice more than 20 years on.
From research that sustains advocacy, to policymakers who listen to the people — these conversations matter & matters for 🇿🇦

A small, unexpected moment — finding SWEAT & @Sisonke_ZA in Aotearoa 🇳🇿
Even here, decades after decriminalisation, the connection to SA remains.
Because this movement is bigger than borders — and it doesn’t end with one win. ✊🏽🌍 #decrimsexwork

Grateful to Aotearoa @NZPC_ for hosting SWEAT & Asijiki. Over 20 years since they achieved decrim & we’re here to learn directly from sex workers, organisers & policymakers, because in the face of misinformation — lived experience matters. #DecrimSexWork #SexWorkisWork

A world where sex work is criminalised is a world where human rights are conditional.
Dignity, safety, and justice belong to all of us — without exception

Scenes from Reclaiming Power & Justice at the Table this weekend. ✨
Good food, bold conversations, and a room full of people who know that justice isn’t just an idea — it’s something we organise for.
Power looks good around a table. 💛

Tomorrow we gather in Cape Town. ☂️
Sex workers and allies come together to celebrate solidarity, launch a new global report on sex work laws, and affirm what we’ve always known:
Full decriminalisation protects sex workers.
Our Work. Our Rights. Our Joy.

Four legal models exist.
Only full decriminalisation removes criminal penalties and centres safety, health & constitutional rights.
It’s the evidence-based approach.
It’s the rights-based approach.
We remain clear: #DecrimNow

The fight for #DecrimSexWork is moving forward.
Decrim Bill advocacy, the upcoming court case, and growing coalitions with sex workers, civil society, and legal allies are all part of the strategy to end criminalisation.
Stand with sex workers.

The festive season isn’t safe for everyone.
Sex workers face heightened violence, stigma and exclusion — especially at year end.
Support is still available. Always.
