International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers

December 17th, 2003 21 years ago

Sex work rights activists established December 17 as the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers to honor those who have been victims of violence, including a serial killer who specifically targeted sex workers. The day serves to highlight the ongoing violence against individuals in the sex industry, as well as systemic abuses by law enforcement authorities. The campaign originated from activism rooted in the experiences of those who faced violence and discrimination in their work.
