Full Decriminalisation of Prostitution is being promoted, without any robust research on the Prostitution sector – no one has any idea of how many Prostituted Persons are in the sector through so-called “free will” versus those who have been forced, coerced and ultimately Trafficked.
We call on the South African Government and the Media to provide a platform for us to raise these concerns that, if ignored, may translate into the effective muting of a collective voice and will result in the most negative consequential policy decision of the post-1994 era.
