The European Sex Workers’ Rights Alliance is proud to launch its latest Impact Report which highlights our key successes between 2010-2020. This report aims to educate members, partners, funders and other stakeholders on the impact of ESWA work over the last 10 years in areas such as advocacy, policy, capacity building and sub granting to its members. In these turbulent political times, fighting for sex workers’ rights and promoting a human rights and public health-based approach to sex work can be very challenging. We hope this Impact Report highlights some of the important changes ESWA and its members have achieved in our region.

2022 report «Myth-Busting the Swedish Model: The Evidence Debunking 10 Key Claims of Client Criminalisation» which find that «the benefits of the Swedish model by its proponents are not supported by the evidence. Sex workers are not decriminalised — a finding corroborated by an Amnesty International report on the situation in Ireland — and there have been rises in cases of human trafficking, with victims of this trade made even more vulnerable within a system of criminalisation.» This finding is supported Swedish sex worker-led organisation Fuckf?rbundet (member of ESWA and NSWP) in their 2019 report Twenty Years of Failing Sex Workers.

«For racialised sex workers, many of whom are (undocumented) migrants, the racism and discrimination they experience is structurally rooted in a socio-political landscape that includes anti-sex work, anti-trafficking, and anti-immigration (ASWTI) laws and policies. This community report explores how racism is entangled in ASWTI legislation in Europe. To do so, the European Sex Workers’ Rights Alliance (ESWA) conducted a literature review on the history of sexualised racism in the European context and racism in global and national sex work policies and laws.»
